Chasidut zu Schemot 26:14

וְעָשִׂ֤יתָ מִכְסֶה֙ לָאֹ֔הֶל עֹרֹ֥ת אֵילִ֖ם מְאָדָּמִ֑ים וּמִכְסֵ֛ה עֹרֹ֥ת תְּחָשִׁ֖ים מִלְמָֽעְלָה׃ (פ)

Mache dann eine Decke zum Zelte von rotgefärbten Widderfellen und eine Decke von Tahasfellen darüber.

Kedushat Levi

Exodus 26,14. “skins of Tachash, to be placed on top.” ‎Sometimes people make remarks in a jocular fashion, although ‎the deeper meaning of their remarks does reflect reverence for ‎G’d. These skins of Tachash used as the outermost coverings of the ‎‎“roof” of the Tabernacle, symbolized this ‎חצוניות‎, vernacular, ‎secular, which though not valuable by itself, was put to good use ‎as a cover, protection for the sacred content beneath the surface. ‎When people known to revere G’d properly, nonetheless indulge ‎in jocular remarks from time to time, this is not to be understood ‎as lack of reverence for G’d, but is meant to make the substance ‎of their remarks which are designed to bring people closer to G’d, ‎more readily acceptable, as their listeners respond to jokes ‎immediately. In the paragraph under discussion the words ‎שש ‏משזר‎, symbolize the real content of the conversation of people ‎who forego the need to “spice” up their words by making jokes ‎first. The words ‎יריעות עזים‎, “sheets or carpets of goat-hair,” refer ‎to people’s discussing their personal needs. ‎
