which separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place within the tabernacle?

 

early Jewish tradition states it was as thick as a man's hand.  does this mean it was as thick as a man's hand is long, or wide?

 

any way to confirm this as truth or exaggeration?

 

God bless.

Yes that is my understanding of it.  It was inches thick, but it's hard to get good sources on this sort of thing you really have to look hard or be lucky enough to already own books that cover it in depth.

The Talmud says it is the width of a mans palm.  Made woven of 72 cords and took 300 priests to carry them
