This is a personal question. I will answer below according to the word that was unfamiliar to me, but feel free to add to the answer in case there were more for you.
Answer and Explanation:
The word that I found unfamiliar and whose meaning I did not know at first was "behest". I had never seen that word before. To understand its meaning, I looked for context clues. <u>The rest of the sentence in which "behest" appears functions as a clue to finding its meaning. It says that, at a person's behest, something happened: "the Exhibition dropped its superfluous rags and stripped itself. . ." As soon as I read this part, it made me think of the word "command." For instance, the sentence "At the general's command, the troops advanced" has a similar connotation to the one with "behest".</u>
To confirm my assumptions, I looked the word up online and found it indeed means "order" or "command".

A supporting detail is used to validate a claim to prove that the claim is indeed true.
A claim on the other hand is a statement made by an author about something which can either be true or false.
Let me give you an example of a claim and how supporting details can be used:
- All tall boys are smarter than shorter boys
- America has a population of 30 million people
- The Earth is round
Now, because i made these claims, i have to provide supporting details to backup this claim.
To do this, i would have to bring reputable sources which contains the figures which would be my supporting details.
I could bring the population figures from an independent reliable source to prove that America indeed has a population of 30 million people.
Please note that your question is incomplete which made me to give you a general overview so that you can understand the concept.
