Esodo 36:3

3 ed essi presero in presenza di Mosè tutte le offerte recate dai figliuoli d’Israele per i lavori destinati al servizio del santuario, affin di eseguirli. Ma ogni mattina i figliuoli d’Israele continuavano a portare a Mosè delle offerte volontarie.

Esodo 36:3 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 36:3

And they received of Moses all the offering
That is, Bezaleel and Aholiab received it of him, who delivered it to the several workmen, as the nature of their work required, some one thing, and some another: to some gold, to others silver, to others brass, and to some they delivered out fine linen, and blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and to others shittim wood; Moses gave all out faithfully that he received, and kept back nothing for his own use or private advantage, even all the above things of which the offering consisted:

which the children of Israel had brought for the work of the
service of the sanctuary, to make it [withal];
and which perhaps they went and fetched the same day they were called together, and acquainted with the mind of God concerning it; or at least they brought it in a very short space of time, and as soon as it possibly could be; it was delivered to the workmen, that the work might be begun, and carried on with the utmost expedition:

and they brought yet unto him free offerings every morning;
they continued for a course of time afterwards to bring their freewill offerings of one thing or another to Moses, every morning, which perhaps was the most suitable time for him to receive them; and best expresses their readiness and diligence in bringing them, and which, as they brought, he sent to the workmen, as appears by what follows.

Esodo 36:3 In-Context

1 E Betsaleel e Oholiab e tutti gli uomini abili, nei quali l’Eterno ha messo sapienza e intelligenza per saper eseguire tutti i lavori per il servizio del santuario, faranno ogni cosa secondo che l’Eterno ha ordinato".

2 Mosè chiamò dunque Betsaleel e Oholiab e tutti gli uomini abili ne’ quali l’Eterno avea messo intelligenza, tutti quelli che il cuore moveva ad applicarsi al lavoro per eseguirlo;

3 ed essi presero in presenza di Mosè tutte le offerte recate dai figliuoli d’Israele per i lavori destinati al servizio del santuario, affin di eseguirli. Ma ogni mattina i figliuoli d’Israele continuavano a portare a Mosè delle offerte volontarie.

4 Allora tutti gli uomini abili ch’erano occupati a tutti i lavori del santuario, lasciato ognuno il lavoro che faceva, vennero a dire a Mosè:

5 "Il popolo porta molto più di quel che bisogna per eseguire i lavori che l’Eterno ha comandato di fare".
