 But there are five pillars instead of four. This may arise from what has been already stated—that the “hanging” is Christ in presentation to the world in grace, and thus brings with it the thought of responsibility man-wards. (The Beautiful Veil: Exodus 26:31-37 by E. Dennett)
 The sockets were of brass instead of silver. Brass, as ever, is divine righteousness testing man in responsibility. This will be more fully explained in the next chapter; but it is easily understood that Christ presented in grace, is Christ presented to, and hence a test of, responsible man. (The Beautiful Veil: Exodus 26:31-37 by E. Dennett)
