It's safe to say that the bulk of them are very odd, and specific. But then again, God just rescued them from centuries of slavery into freedom.
I am not going to delve into any of these as they are irrelevant in today's society--as well as irrelevant once His son Jesus came and died for us. But that's for another day.
In chapter 24, we see Moses going up the mountain and coming down with stone tablets, with the various laws written out on them. Then, in chapter 25, God instructed them on how to make what He called the Covenent Box (i.e. the Ark of the Covenent). He was specific on how it was to be constructed, even down to the exact dimensions.
To continue on, chapter 26 is about a sacred Tent for God. Once again, very specific on what it should be made of and the exact dimensions. Then, in chapter 27, a sacred Altar is construted along with an enclosure for the sacred Tent.
