וְהָאַמָּ֨ה מִזֶּ֜ה וְהָאַמָּ֤ה מִזֶּה֙ בָּעֹדֵ֔ף בְּאֹ֖רֶךְ יְרִיעֹ֣ת הָאֹ֑הֶל יִהְיֶ֨ה סָר֜וּחַ עַל־צִדֵּ֧י הַמִּשְׁכָּ֛ן מִזֶּ֥ה וּמִזֶּ֖ה לְכַסֹּתֽוֹ׃
Quel braccio poi dall’una parte, e quel braccio dall’altra, avanzante nella lunghezza delle cortine del padiglione, penzolerà ai lati (maggiori) del tabernacolo, dall’una e dall’altra parte, per coprirlo [cioè per difendere le sottoposte cortine di bisso ecc., dette del tabernacolo, mentre quelle di pel di capre son dette del padiglione].

Rashi on Exodus
יהיה מרוח על צדי המשכן SHALL HANG OVER THE SIDES OF THE TABERNACLE — on the north and on the south as I have explained above.
