“Doctor, Doctor I feel like a pair of curtains!”*

But enough silly jokes, I want to talk about dolphins in the Bible. You know, the ones in Exodus 26.

In my youth we were taught lots of Bible detail about the Tabernacle, but I never really bought into all those curtains and coverings and sockets to fasten them together.  Nowadays I take more notice of “all scripture is given us for instruction.” (2Tim:3.16).  And the great big cover over the whole Tabernacle is made of leather.  Dolphin skins.  Or porpoises.  Or badger skins.  Or manatee (a type of extinct sea cow).
