A table... On which were to be placed the twelve loaves of proposition: or, as they are called in the Hebrew, the face bread, because they were always to stand before the face of the Lord in his temple: as a figure of the eucharistic sacrifice and sacrament, in the church of Christ.
25:24. And thou shalt overlay it with the purest gold: and thou shalt make to it a golden ledge round about.
25:25. And to the ledge itself a polished crown, four inches high; and over the same another little golden crown.
25:26. Thou shalt prepare also four golden rings, and shalt put them in the four corners of the same table, over each foot.
25:27. Under the crown shall the golden rings be, that the bars may be put through them, and the table may be carried.
25:28. The bars also themselves thou shalt make of setim wood, and shalt overlay them with gold, to bear up the table.
25:29. Thou shalt prepare also dishes, and bowls, censers, and cups, wherein the libations are to be offered, of the purest gold.
Libations... That is, drink offerings.
25:30. And thou shalt set upon the table loaves of proposition in my sight always.
25:31. Thou shalt make also a candlestick of beaten work, of the finest gold, the shaft thereof, and the branches, the cups, and the bowls, and the lilies going forth from it.
