Exodus 36:7 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 36:7

For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work to
make it
The gold, silver, brass, and precious stones, the wood and yarn, which had been already brought in, were sufficient for everything they were ordered to make:

and too much;
a great deal more than would be used; much would remain after all was wrought: what was done with this is not said, whether it was returned to the people, or laid up for the use of the tabernacle and service, as might hereafter be wanted; which latter seems most probable.

Exodus 36:7 In-Context

5 and they said to Moses, "The people are bringing more than we need to do the work the Lord commanded."

6 Then Moses sent this command throughout the camp: "No man or woman should make anything else as a gift for the Holy Tent." So the people were kept from giving more,

7 because what they had was already more than enough to do all the work.

8 Then the skilled workers made the Holy Tent. They made the ten curtains of blue, purple, and red cloth, and they sewed designs of creatures with wings on the curtains.

9 Each curtain was the same size -- forty-two feet long and six feet wide.
