Context of Exodus 26:33

31“Make a canopy of violet, purple, and bright red yarn. Creatively work an angel design into fine linen yarn. 32Use gold hooks to hang it on four posts of acacia wood covered with gold, standing in four silver sockets. Hang the canopy from the fasteners in the ceiling, and put the ark containing the words of my promise under it. The canopy will mark off the most holy place from the holy place. 34Put the throne of mercy that is on the ark in the most holy place. 35“Place the table outside the canopy on the north side of the inner tent, and put the lamp stand opposite the table on the south side.
