Commentary on Exodus 27:19

Theological / Devotional

The vessels. There must have been many vessels used in connection with the sanctuary service, among them being the laver (Exodus 30:18). The “pins” were the pegs, or tent pins, which kept the tabernacle coverings taut and the “pillars,” or posts, in place. These minor accessories played their important part in the erection of the tabernacle.

They did not rank, perhaps, with the furniture in the two apartments of the tabernacle and with the altar of burnt offering; nevertheless, without them the ministrations of the priests would have failed. They were like the indispensable “helps” that God has ever placed “in the church” (1 Corinthians 12:28).
