Exodus 28:7

28:7 It is to have two shoulder pieces attached to two of its corners, so it can be joined together.

Exodus 36:18

36:18 He made fifty bronze clasps to join the tent together so that it might be a unit.

Exodus 39:4

39:4 They made shoulder pieces for it, attached to two of its corners, so it could be joined together.

tn Here the Pual perfect with the vav (ו) consecutive provides the purpose clause (equal to a final imperfect); the form follows the use of the active participle, “attached” or more Heb “joining.”

tn The construction uses the infinitive construct from the verb “to be” to express this purpose clause: “to be one,” or, “so that it might be a unit.”
