Context of Exodus 36:10

8All the workers who had special skills made the tabernacle with ten curtains. They used very good linen, as well as blue, purple and red material. They made beautiful pictures of cherubs on the curtains. 9All the curtains were the same size: 12 metres long and 2 metres wide. The workers joined five of the curtains together. They did the same thing with the other five curtains. 11They made rings of blue material along the edge of the last curtain in each set of five curtains. 12They put 50 rings along the edge of the first set. They put another 50 rings along the edge of the second set. The rings on one curtain were opposite to the rings on the other curtain.
