"And Bezalel and Aholiab, and every gifted artisan in whom the Lord has put wisdom and understanding, to know how to do all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, shall do according to all that the Lord has commanded."
2
Then Moses called Bezalel and Aholiab, and every gifted artisan in whose heart the Lord had put wisdom, everyone whose heart was stirred, to come and do the work.
3
And they received from Moses all the offering which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the service of making the sanctuary. So they continued bringing to him freewill offerings every morning.
4
Then all the craftsmen who were doing all the work of the sanctuary came, each from the work he was doing,
5
and they spoke to Moses, saying, "The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which the Lord commanded us to do."
6
So Moses gave a commandment, and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp, saying, "Let neither man nor woman do any more work for the offering of the sanctuary." And the people were restrained from bringing,
7
for the material they had was sufficient for all the work to be done--indeed too much.
8
Then all the gifted artisans among them who worked on the tabernacle made ten curtains woven of fine linen, and of blue, purple, and scarlet thread; with artistic designs of cherubim they made them.
9
The length of each curtain was twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits; the curtains were all the same size.
10
And he coupled five curtains to one another, and the other five curtains he coupled to one another.
