sense in the lessons
In the Tanakh and Jewish tradition: Used for the outermost covering of the Tabernacle tent. The Hebrew word is tachash, and the translators were unsure what animal it meant. Interpretation: Tradition debates what the tachash was. Some sages say it was a special colourful animal that existed only for the building of the Tabernacle, while others think it was a kind of skin or leather. In the primary lessons: in the tales, sealskin is a fine, magic or precious skin that creatures and dwarfs wear or use
