**עצי שטים עומדים.**פשטיה שלא תקח מן הנפולים והנקצצין מימים רבים שכבר נרקבו אלא מן העומדים בקומתם. ד"א עומדים שהן עומדים לעולם ועדיין הם קיימים ונגנזים:

**Daat Zekenim translated by Rb. Eliyahu Munk:**
עצי שטים עומדים, “made of acacia wood standing upright.” One interpretation of the word עומדים, is that they were taken from trees which up to that time had been standing rooted in the earth, i.e. they had not had time to dry out or to begin to rot. An alternate explanation for the word עומדים would be that the boards remained in their prime condition forever.
