Exodus 31:1-5 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

It is profitable to observe, that all the appointments, as well of Providence as of grace, are of divine authority. Ephesians 4:11-12; Proverbs 16:33

It is equally profitable to remark, that the common gifts of understanding, as well as the special gifts of grace, are all from the same Almighty Giver. Isaiah 28:26; Job 38:36. And how sweetly doth the Apostle speak of these things; 1 Corinthians 12:4-11.

Exodus 31:1-5

1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

4 To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.
