Haydock's commentary
Hanging, or veil, suspended on five pillars, before the sanctuary. (Haydock)
It was the other veil, which was rent at the death of Christ. Baronius observes, that Christian temples were formerly built in imitation of the Jewish tabernacle. It was a figure of the Catholic church, 1 Timothy iii. 15.
