23And two boards shalt thou make for the corners of the tabernacle in the two sides.

26And thou shalt make bars of shittim wood; five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle,

Matthew Henry on Exodus 26:27
Very particular directions are here given about the boards of the tabernacle, which were to bear up the curtains, as the stakes of a tent which had need to be strong, Isa. liv. 2. These boards had tenons which fell into the mortises that were made for them in silver bases. God took care to have every thing strong, as well as fine, in his tabernacle.
