[Avodah] atzei shittim

[SBA]

From: Saul.Z.Newman at kp.org
is there any makor talking about when the atzei shittim for the mishkan were
cut down?  were the trees chopped down the night of yetziah, or some years
before?  it  would seem a big job to do  in one night,
===

Big job?  In those heady daysme when there were nissim and niflaos going on
all around them, chopping down a few trees would've been a very tiny matter.


Anyway, Rashi seems to says that they prepared for it on Yaakov Avinu's
instructions. [26:15].

As for the briach hatichon, have a look at the Targum Yonoson 26:28 on how
that (sourced from Avrohom Avinu's eshel in Beer Sheva) got there, as well
as the miraculous way it threaded itself through the 3 sides of the mishkan.
