Contextual Overview

1 Thus shall Bezaleel and Oholiab work, and every man that is wise-hearted, in whom Yahweh hath put wisdom and understanding, to know how to work any manner of workmanship for the holy service, - according to all that Yahweh hath commanded. 2 So then Moses called upon Bezaleel, and upon Oholiab, and upon every man that was wise-hearted, in whose heart Yahweh had put wisdom, - every one whose heart lifted him up, to draw near unto the work, to do it. 3 And they took, from the presence of Moses, all the heave-offering which the sons of Israel had brought in for the work of the holy service to do it, - howbeit, they, brought in unto him yet more free-will offerings, meriting by morning. 4 Then came in all the wise men who were doing all the holy work, - man by man from his work which, they, were doing; 5 and spake unto Moses, saying, More than enough, are the people bringing in, - more than is needed for the service pertaining to the work; which Yahweh hath commanded to be done. 6 So Moses gave commandment and they passed a proclamation throughout the camp, saying, Let, neither man nor woman, make any more material for the holy heave-offering. So the people were restrained from bringing in. 7 For the material was enough for all the work, to make it, - and to spare.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses called Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man,.... It was not enough that they had qualifications for this work, but they must have a call to it from Moses, to whom the whole affair was committed, to see that it was done according to the pattern shown him in the mount: so all that are concerned in the public work and service of the church of God should have a call unto it both from the Lord and from the church:

in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come unto the work to do it; who had not only abilities given him of God, but a mind disposed for it, a willingness of heart, a readiness of soul for such service, was even eager upon it, and in haste to be at it.
