Curtains of one measure

Ex 26:2
"and every one of the curtains shall be of one measure"

The ten curtains were coupled together to form the whole covering for the tabernacle. Only the ones on the roof would be seen from the inside of the tabernacle when you looked up. Whither you could see them or not they all measured the same. In this we can see the perfection of Christ.
They were made with blue, purple and scarlet: with cherubims. Here we see Christ in the heavens, and as king and as the sacrifice and it is glorious.
Skillful workmen were given the task of making them, what a responsibility.
