36:1 「比撒列和亞何利亞伯，並一切心裡有智慧的，就是蒙耶和華賜智慧聰明、叫他知道做聖所各樣使用之工的，都要照耶和華所吩咐的做工。」
36:2 凡耶和華賜他心裡有智慧、而且受感前來做這工的，摩西把他們和比撒列並亞何利亞伯一同召來。
36:3 這些人就從摩西收了以色列人為做聖所並聖所使用之工所拿來的禮物。百姓每早晨還把甘心獻的禮物拿來。
36:4 凡做聖所一切工的智慧人各都離開他所做的工，
36:5 來對摩西說：「百姓為耶和華吩咐使用之工所拿來的，富富有餘。」
36:6 摩西傳命，他們就在全營中宣告說：「無論男女，不必再為聖所拿甚麼禮物來。」這樣才攔住百姓不再拿禮物來。
36:7 因為他們所有的材料夠做一切當做的物，而且有餘。
1 So Bezalel, Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord has given skill and ability to know how to carry out all the work of constructing the sanctuary are to do the work just as the Lord has commanded.”
2 Then Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person to whom the Lord had given ability and who was willing to come and do the work. 3 They received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to carry out the work of constructing the sanctuary. And the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning. 4 So all the skilled workers who were doing all the work on the sanctuary left what they were doing 5 and said to Moses, “The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the Lord commanded to be done.”
6 Then Moses gave an order and they sent this word throughout the camp: “No man or woman is to make anything else as an offering for the sanctuary.” And so the people were restrained from bringing more, 7 because what they already had was more than enough to do all the work.

一般的基督徒的敬虔程度，反而比有受過造救得更深、更真誠！就像這一群以色列民，他們愛主的程度，是不會輸給祭司或利未人！
就像這裡所說，他們為了準備給耶和華的禮物，是不斷的供應，直到摩西傳命，他們就在全營中宣告說：「無論男女，不必再為聖所拿甚麼禮物來。」這樣才攔住百姓不再拿禮物來。也因為這樣，「因為他們所有的材料夠做一切當做的物，而且有餘。」
求主保守，讓我們的教會弟兄姊妹，都像當時的以色列人一般，心被恩感的將自己的「禮物」奉獻給上帝，使上帝的家中永不缺乏！
