Numbers 4:7
And upon the table of shewbread they shall spread a cloth of blue, and put thereon the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and covers to cover withal: and the continual bread shall be thereon: (Numbers 4:7)
The table of shewbread.
Literally, “the table of the faces,” meaning the “table of the Presence,” referring to the bread that was placed before the Lord.
Spoons, and the bowls.
 See Ex. 25:29.
Continual bread.
 This expression does not occur again in the Bible. The explanation is found in Ex. 25:30, in harmony with the literal words here: “the bread of continuity.” Compare with the NT terms, meaning “the bread of the setting out” (Matt. 12:4; Mark 2:26; Luke 6:4), and “the placing forth of the loaves” (Heb. 9:2).
