Exodus 35:10-36:38
1. (2012) Verse 10:
“All who are skilled among you are to come and make everything the LORD has commanded:
God calls "all who are skilled" to come and work on the construction and finishing of His temple. These aren't amateurs though they are volunteers (?). How does this relate to "all who are gifted"? (which is often heard in churches)
2.(2012) This verse makes me think that there was no commandment for God's people to pursue skills or craftsmanship to build or craft beautiful yet He gave them the skill:
30 Then Moses said to the Israelites, “See, the LORD has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, 31 and he has filled him with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts— 32 to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, 33 to cut and set stones, to work in wood and to engage in all kinds of artistic craftsmanship. 34 And he has given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others. 35 He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as craftsmen, designers, embroiderers in blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen, and weavers—all of them master craftsmen and designers.
