Exodus 36 - Prayer Tents

36So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the LORD has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the LORD has commanded."H6213H1212H171H2450H3820H376H1992H3068H5414H2451H8394H3045H6213H4399H5656H6944H3068H6680 2Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the LORD had given ability and who was willing to come and do the work.H4872H7121H1212H171H2450H3820H376H3820H3068H5414H2451H3820H5375H7126H4399H6213 3They received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to carry out the work of constructing the sanctuary. And the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning.H3947H6440H4872H8641H1121H3478H935H4399H5656H6944H6213H935H5071H1242 4So all the skilled craftsmen who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left their workH2450H6213H4399H6944H935H376H4399H6213 5and said to Moses, "The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the LORD commanded to be done."H559H4872H559H5971H935H7235H1767H5656H4399H3068H6680H6213 6Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: "No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary." And so the people were restrained from bringing more,H4872H6680H6963H5674H4264H559H376H802H6213H4399H8641H6944H5971H3607H935 7because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work.H4399H1767H4399H6213H3498
