Exodus, 35

Commentary

Exodus 35 is a chapter that focuses on the preparations for the building of the Tabernacle. It begins with the Lord commanding Moses to instruct the Israelites to observe the Sabbath and to bring offerings to the Lord for the building of the Tabernacle. The Lord then gives Moses detailed instructions on how the Tabernacle should be constructed, including the materials to be used and the measurements of each part. The chapter then goes on to describe how the Israelites responded to the Lord's command. They willingly brought their offerings of gold, silver, bronze, and other materials, as well as their skills in weaving, carpentry, and metalworking. The Lord was pleased with their response and blessed them for their obedience. The chapter ends with the Lord instructing Moses to appoint Bezalel and Oholiab to oversee the construction of the Tabernacle. This is significant because it shows that the Lord was entrusting the Israelites with the task of building His dwelling place. Exodus 35 is an important chapter in the Bible because it shows how the Lord provided for the Israelites and how they responded to His commands. It also serves as a reminder that we should be obedient to God and willing to offer our gifts and talents to Him.
