Exodus25:29

29 And thou shalt make the dishes thereof, and spoons thereof, and covers thereof, and bowls thereof, to cover withal : of pure gold shalt thou make them.

In which the bread and Frankincense upon it were put, Levit. 24. 7. Of this sort there were twelve one for every loaf.

In which incense was put, as appears from Numb. 7. 14. and by which incense was either put into the dishes, or taken out of them, as occasion required.

So the Hebrew word is used Exod. 37. 16. Numb. 4. 7. Herewith either the Bread or Incense or both.

To cover the same things. So this and the former were two several sorts of covers, the one deeper than the other, one to cover the bread, another, the incense. Or, Bowls thereof, to pour out withall, to wit, liquid things, as Wine and Oyl, when they were offered. See Gen. 35. 14. Or these last words may relate not onely to the bowls, but the other things, here mentioned, and may be thus rendred, wherewith it, to wit, the Table, shall be covered, as indeed it was in a manner quite covered with these vessels.

Marginal references: Or, to pour out withal.
