Exodus 36:6

6 Therefore Moses commanded to be cried by the voice of a crier, Neither man nor woman offer more anything in the work of [the] saintuary; and so it was ceased from gifts to be offered, (And so Moses commanded to be cried by the voice of a crier, No man or woman need offer anything more for the work of the sanctuary; and so they ceased from offering gifts,)

Exodus 36:6 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 36:6

And Moses gave commandment
Orders to some proper person or persons about him;

and they caused it to be proclaimed throughout the camp,
or "caused a voice to pass"; a crier or herald, as the Targums, who went through the camp and published in every quarter:

saying, let neither man nor woman make any more work for the
offering of the sanctuary;
as the men in cutting shittim wood, and planing it, and the women in spinning blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and goats' hair:

so the people were restrained from bringing;
that is, any more: instead of a spur to liberality, which most want, a restraint was laid upon these to check it, and prevent an excess in it, of which there is rarely any danger; so eager, forward, and zealous were they in this good work.

Exodus 36:6 In-Context

4 Wherefore the workmen were compelled to come,

5 and they said to Moses, The people offereth more than is needful. (and they said to Moses, The people offereth more than is needed.)

6 Therefore Moses commanded to be cried by the voice of a crier, Neither man nor woman offer more anything in the work of [the] saintuary; and so it was ceased from gifts to be offered, (And so Moses commanded to be cried by the voice of a crier, No man or woman need offer anything more for the work of the sanctuary; and so they ceased from offering gifts,)

7 for the things offered sufficed, and were over-abundant (and indeed were more than enough).

8 And all the wise men in heart, to fulfill the work of the tabernacle, made ten curtains of bis folded again, and of jacinth, and purple, and of red silk twice-dyed, by diverse work, and by the craft of many colours. (And the most skilled men, doing the work for the Tabernacle, made ten curtains out of finely woven linen, and jacinth, and purple, and red silk twice-dyed, and embroidered them with cherubim.)
