Exodus 36:4 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 36:4

And all the wise men that wrought all the work of the
sanctuary
The ingenious artificers who were employed, some in one thing, and some in another, either on the tabernacle itself, or the vessels of it, and things appertaining to it;

came every man from his work which they made;
left off their work by mutual consent and agreement, and came in a body to Moses.

Exodus 36:4 In-Context

2 Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every other craftsman to whom the LORD had given these skills and who was willing to come and do the work.
3 Moses turned over to them all the contributions the Israelites had brought for the work of constructing the holy place. But the people still kept bringing him freewill offerings every morning.
4 Finally, all the skilled craftsmen who were working on the holy place stopped what they were doing. They all came to Moses.
5 They said, "The people are bringing much more than we need for doing the work the LORD commanded us to do."
6 So Moses gave instructions to have the following message announced all over camp: "No man or woman needs to make anything more to give as their special contribution to the holy place." Then the people stopped bringing gifts.
