re:curtains of the mishkan

Re: the curtains of the mishkan I do not, simply, understand your question. If it is what animal was the skin from you seem to have found answers to it, but if your question is about the numbers then it becomes a very intriguing question.
The numbers might have something to do with the understandings of how domensions are connected. The dimensions of reality (as in the 10 dimensional it seperates and how we connect to the other half of the 10D that we are not in.) It could be because these hooks and loops are to only represent the small connections to the other dimensions. (The idea that I am using here is that there was a 26D point that split into a 10D and a 16D dimensions. 10D "place" split again into either a 6D and a 4D or two 5D planes.) and also note the number here, 50 hooks and 50 loops. 50 is also the number of levels of holiness. maybe the fact that there are loops and not just hooks shows us that these connections between these two plains can be easily severed, but are harder to reconnect. Just like a loop is easier to undo and takes less effort to do this, it takes more effort to retie it again. cHEMCHOPS
