Exodus 37:19-20

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Exodus 37:10-24

Here is, 1. The making of the table on which the show-bread was to be continually placed. God is a good householder, that always keeps a plentiful table. Isa. the world his tabernacle? His providence in it spreads a table for all the creatures: he provides food for all flesh. Isa. the church his tabernacle? His grace in it spreads a table for all believers, furnished with the bread of life. But observe how much the dispensation of the gospel exceeds that of the law. Though here was a table... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Exodus 37:1-29

And Bezaleel made the ark of shittim wood ,.... Jarchi says, because he gave his mind to this work more than the rest of the wise men, it is called by his name. It is a notion of some Jewish writers that the ark was made by Bezaleel, without the help of others; but there is no sufficient reason to be given for it; for other things are equally ascribed to him in this and the following chapter, as the mercy seat with the cherubim, the shewbread table, the candlestick of pure gold, the two... read more

The furnishing of the tabernacle. I. ALL WAS ACCOMPLISHED AS GOD HAD COMMANDED . 1. Successfully.

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Exodus 37:1-29

35:1-40:38 CONSTRUCTION OF THE TABERNACLEThis section largely repeats the instruction given on the mountain in Chapters 25-31. It emphasizes that the people had to do God’s work according to his covenant requirements. Therefore, they were to keep the Sabbath (35:1-3; cf. 31:16). If they wanted God to accept their offerings for the building of the tabernacle, they had to present those offerings in a spirit of joy and willingness (35:4-29). Though all could give offerings, only those with the... read more
