2 And Moses H4872 called H7121 Bezaleel H1212 and Aholiab, H171 and every wise H2450 hearted H3820 man, H376 in whose heart H3820 the LORD H3068 had put H5414 wisdom, H2451 even every one whose heart H3820 stirred him up H5375 to come H7126 unto the work H4399 to do H6213 it:
And I, behold, I have given H5414 with him Aholiab, H171 the son H1121 of Ahisamach, H294 of the tribe H4294 of Dan: H1835 and in the hearts H3820 of all that are wise H2450 hearted H3820 I have put H5414 wisdom, H2451 that they may make H6213 all that I have commanded H6680 thee;
The gold H2091 for things of gold, H2091 and the silver H3701 for things of silver, H3701 and for all manner of work H4399 to be made by the hands H3027 of artificers. H2796 And who then is willing H5068 to consecrate H4390 his service H3027 this day H3117 unto the LORD? H3068
And thou shalt speak H1696 unto all that are wise H2450 hearted, H3820 whom I have filled H4390 with the spirit H7307 of wisdom, H2451 that they may make H6213 Aaron's H175 garments H899 to consecrate H6942 him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office. H3547
And they came, H935 every one H376 whose H834 heart H3820 stirred him up, H5375 and every one whom his spirit H7307 made willing, H5068 and they brought H935 the LORD'S H3068 offering H8641 to the work H4399 of the tabernacle H168 of the congregation, H4150 and for all his service, H5656 and for the holy H6944 garments. H899 And they came, H935 both H5921 men H582 and women, H802 as many as H3605 were willing H5081 hearted, H3820 and brought H935 bracelets, H2397 and earrings, H5141 and rings, H2885 and tablets, H3558 all jewels H3627 of gold: H2091 and every man H376 that offered H5130 offered an offering H8573 of gold H2091 unto the LORD. H3068 And every man, H376 with whom was found H4672 blue, H8504 and purple, H713 and scarlet, H8144 H8438 and fine linen, H8336 and goats' H5795 hair, and red H119 skins H5785 of rams, H352 and badgers' H8476 skins, H5785 brought H935 them. Every one that did offer H7311 an offering H8641 of silver H3701 and brass H5178 brought H935 the LORD'S H3068 offering: H8641 and every man, with whom was found H4672 shittim H7848 wood H6086 for any work H4399 of the service, H5656 brought H935 it. And all the women H802 that were wise H2450 hearted H3820 did spin H2901 with their hands, H3027 and brought H935 that which they had spun, H4299 both of blue, H8504 and of purple, H713 and of scarlet, H8144 H8438 and of fine linen. H8336 And all the women H802 whose heart H3820 stirred H5375 them up in wisdom H2451 spun H2901 goats' H5795 hair. And the rulers H5387 brought H935 onyx H7718 stones, H68 and stones H68 to be set, H4394 for the ephod, H646 and for the breastplate; H2833 And spice, H1314 and oil H8081 for the light, H3974 and for the anointing H4888 oil, H8081 and for the sweet H5561 incense. H7004 The children H1121 of Israel H3478 brought H935 a willing offering H5071 unto the LORD, H3068 every man H376 and woman, H802 whose H834 heart H3820 made them willing H5068 to bring H935 for all manner of work, H4399 which the LORD H3068 had commanded H6680 to be made H6213 by the hand H3027 of Moses. H4872 And Moses H4872 said H559 unto the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 See, H7200 the LORD H3068 hath called H7121 by name H8034 Bezaleel H1212 the son H1121 of Uri, H221 the son H1121 of Hur, H2354 of the tribe H4294 of Judah; H3063 And he hath filled H4390 him with the spirit H7307 of God, H430 in wisdom, H2451 in understanding, H8394 and in knowledge, H1847 and in all manner of workmanship; H4399 And to devise H2803 curious works, H4284 to work H6213 in gold, H2091 and in silver, H3701 and in brass, H5178 And in the cutting H2799 of stones, H68 to set H4390 them, and in carving H2799 of wood, H6086 to make H6213 any manner of cunning H4284 work. H4399 And he hath put H5414 in his heart H3820 that he may teach, H3384 both he, and Aholiab, H171 the son H1121 of Ahisamach, H294 of the tribe H4294 of Dan. H1835 Them hath he filled H4390 with wisdom H2451 of heart, H3820 to work H6213 all manner of work, H4399 of the engraver, H2796 and of the cunning workman, H2803 and of the embroiderer, H7551 in blue, H8504 and in purple, H713 in scarlet, H8144 H8438 and in fine linen, H8336 and of the weaver, H707 even of them that do H6213 any H3605 work, H4399 and of those that devise H2803 cunning work. H4284
Wherefore, G3767 brethren, G80 look ye out G1980 among G1537 you G5216 seven G2033 men G435 of honest report, G3140 full G4134 of the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 and G2532 wisdom, G4678 whom G3739 we may appoint G2525 over G1909 this G5026 business. G5532 But G1161 we G2249 will give ourselves continually G4342 to prayer, G4335 and G2532 to the ministry G1248 of the word. G3056

Commentary on Exodus 36 Keil & Delitzsch Commentary
Moses then summoned the master-builders named, and all who were skilled in art, “ every one whom his heart lifted up to come near to the work to do it ” (i.e., who felt himself stirred up in heart to take part in the work), and handed over to them the heaven-offering presented by the people for that purpose, whilst the children of Israel still continued bringing freewill-offerings every morning.
Then the wise workmen came, every one from his work that they were making, and said to Moses, “ Much make the people to bring, more than suffices for the labour (the finishing, as in Exodus 27:19) of the work, ” i.e., they are bringing more than will be wanted for carrying out the work (the מן in מדּי is comparative); whereupon Moses let the cry go through the camp, i.e., had proclamation made, “No one is to make any more property ( מלאכה as in Exodus 22:7, Exodus 22:10, cf. Genesis 33:14) for a holy heave-offering,” i.e., to prepare anything more from his own property to offer for the building of the sanctuary; and with this he put a stop to any further offerings.
“ And there was enough ( דּיּם their sufficiency, i.e., the requisite supply for the different things to be made) of the property for every work to make it, and over ” (lit., and to leave some over). By this liberal contribution of freewill gifts, for the work commanded by the Lord, the people proved their willingness to uphold their covenant relationship with Jehovah their God.
Ex 36:8-38:20. Execution of the Work. - Preparation of the dwelling-place: viz., the hangings and covering (Exodus 36:8-19, as in Exodus 26:1-14); the wooden boards and bolts (Exodus 36:20-34, as in Ex 26:15-30); the two curtains, with the pillars, hooks, and rods that supported them (Exodus 36:35-38, as in Exodus 26:31-37). As these have all been already explained, the only thing remaining to be noticed here is, that the verbs עשׂה in Exodus 36:8, ויחבּר in Exodus 36:10, etc., are in the third person singular with an indefinite subject, corresponding to the German man (the French on ).
