Scofield
pillars
The fillets and hooks upholding the linen hangings are of silver (See Scofield "Exodus 38:27") for it is in virtue of His redemptive work that Christ is our way of access, and not by virtue of His righteous life (symbolized by the fine linen); but the pillars of the court rest upon brass sockets, not silver as in the case of the boards See Scofield "Exodus 26:19" and brass symbolizes divine righteousness in judgment See Scofield "Numbers 21:9". Redemption not only displays God's mercy, but vindicates His righteousness in showing that mercy. Romans 3:21-26.
