“Bezalel and Oholiab shall work with every wise-hearted man, in whom the LORD has put wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD has commanded.” See also: Exodus 28:3Exodus 31:1-6Exodus 35:30-35Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab, and every wise-hearted man, in whose heart the LORD had put wisdom, even everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to the work to do it. See also: Colossians 4:17Hebrews 5:4Exodus 31:6They received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of the sanctuary, with which to make it. They kept bringing free will offerings to him every morning. See also: Exodus 35:29Psalms 101:8Isaiah 50:4All the wise men, who performed all the work of the sanctuary, each came from his work which he did. See also: Luke 12:421 Corinthians 3:102 Chronicles 24:13They spoke to Moses, saying, “The people have brought much more than enough for the service of the work which the LORD commanded to make.” See also: 2 Chronicles 31:6-102 Corinthians 8:2-32 Chronicles 24:14Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, “Let neither man nor woman make anything else for the offering for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing. For the stuff they had was sufficient to do all the work, and too much. See also: 2 Chronicles 31:10All the wise-hearted men among those who did the work made the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen, blue, purple, and scarlet. They made them with cherubim, the work of a skillful workman. See also: Exodus 31:6Exodus 25:18Exodus 25:22The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. All the curtains had one measure. He coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled to one another. See also: 1 Corinthians 12:27Exodus 26:31 Corinthians 12:20He made loops of blue on the edge of the one curtain from the edge in the coupling. Likewise he made in the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the second coupling. See also: Exodus 26:4He made fifty loops in the one curtain, and he made fifty loops in the edge of the curtain that was in the second coupling. The loops were opposite to one another. See also: Exodus 26:5Exodus 26:10He made fifty clasps of gold, and coupled the curtains to one another with the clasps: so the tabernacle was a unit. See also: 1 Corinthians 12:201 Peter 2:4-5Ephesians 2:20-22He made curtains of goats’ hair for a covering over the tabernacle. He made them eleven curtains. See also: Exodus 26:7-13The length of each curtain was thirty cubits, and four cubits the width of each curtain. The eleven curtains had one measure. He coupled five curtains by themselves, and six curtains by themselves. He made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain that was outermost in the coupling, and he made fifty loops on the edge of the curtain which was outermost in the second coupling. He made fifty clasps of bronze to couple the tent together, that it might be a unit. He made a covering for the tent of rams’ skins dyed red, and a covering of sea cow hides above. See also: Exodus 26:14He made the boards for the tabernacle of acacia wood, standing up. See also: Exodus 25:5Exodus 40:18-19Numbers 25:1Ten cubits was the length of a board, and a cubit and a half the width of each board. Each board had two tenons, joined to one another. He made all the boards of the tabernacle this way. He made the boards for the tabernacle, twenty boards for the south side southward. He made forty sockets of silver under the twenty boards: two sockets under one board for its two tenons, and two sockets under another board for its two tenons. For the second side of the tabernacle, on the north side, he made twenty boards and their forty sockets of silver: two sockets under one board, and two sockets under another board. For the far part of the tabernacle westward he made six boards. See also: Exodus 26:27Exodus 26:22He made two boards for the corners of the tabernacle in the far part. They were double beneath, and in the same way they were all the way to its top to one ring. He did this to both of them in the two corners. See also: Exodus 26:24Psalms 122:3Ephesians 2:21There were eight boards and their sockets of silver, sixteen sockets—under every board two sockets. See also: Exodus 26:25He made bars of acacia wood: five for the boards of the one side of the tabernacle, See also: Exodus 26:26-29Exodus 30:5Exodus 25:28and five bars for the boards of the other side of the tabernacle, and five bars for the boards of the tabernacle for the hinder part westward. See also: Exodus 26:26He made the middle bar to pass through in the middle of the boards from the one end to the other. He overlaid the boards with gold, and made their rings of gold as places for the bars, and overlaid the bars with gold. He made the veil of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, with cherubim. He made it the work of a skillful workman. See also: Matthew 27:51Exodus 30:6Hebrews 10:20He made four pillars of acacia for it, and overlaid them with gold. Their hooks were of gold. He cast four sockets of silver for them. See also: Jeremiah 1:18He made a screen for the door of the tent, of blue, purple, scarlet, and fine twined linen, the work of an embroiderer; See also: Exodus 40:28Exodus 26:36-37and the five pillars of it with their hooks. He overlaid their capitals and their fillets with gold, and their five sockets were of bronze. See also: Exodus 27:10

Notes · Haydock (1859, public domain)3 notes

Notes in English 19th-century Catholic commentary by Fr. George Leo Haydock, shown as published.

These notes keep the polemics of their time: some speak harshly of the Jewish people or of other Christians. The Church teaches otherwise today. The Jewish people may not be blamed for the death of Christ (Nostra Aetate 4; Catechism 597–598), and Christians of other communities are our brothers and sisters in the Lord (Unitatis Redintegratio 3).

Exodus 36:3

Ver. 3. Vows, or voluntary oblations to Moses, according to the Heb. C. ---

These donations are called first-fruits, because they were the best of all things, and the first offerings that were made by the people, in the desert. T. --- They shew great alacrity in performing this action, as it was to make some atonement for their liberality in honour of the golden calf. H. --- But as matter alone will not suffice, unless it be properly managed, so neither will the letter of the Scripture instruct us, unless God teaches us, by his pastors. Ephes. iv.

11. W. --- From this place to the end, the Roman edition of the Sept. is very confused. That of Alcala agrees better with the Vulgate than the Alexandrian or Aldine. See Grabe. Almost all the three following chapters might be comprised of these words. The workmen did all according to God's prescription. Moses perhaps gave them plans of what each was to execute; and hence Calmet accounts for these repetitions. H.
