Workmanship - Exodus 31

And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son  of Hur, of the tribe of Judah: Exodus 31:1 -  2

Exodus 31:3 And I have filled him  with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and  in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, 

Exodus 31:4  To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and  in brass, 

Exodus 31:5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and  in carving of timber, to work in all 
manner of workmanship.  

Exodus 31:6 And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the  son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of  all that are wise hearted I have put wisdom, that they may  make all that I have commanded thee; 

Exodus 31:7 The  tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony,  and the mercy seat that is thereupon, and all the furniture  of the tabernacle, 

Exodus 31:8 And the table and his furniture,  and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar  of incense, 

Exodus 31:9 And the altar of burnt offering with all  his furniture, and the laver and his foot, 

Exodus 31:10 And the  cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the  priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the  priest’s office, 

Exodus 31:11 And the anointing oil, and sweet  incense for the holy place: according to all that I have  commanded thee shall they do.  

Exodus 31:12 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,  

Exodus 31:13 Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying,  Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between  me and you throughout your generations; that ye may know  that I am the LORD that doth sanctify you. 

Exodus 31:14 Ye  shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you:  every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for  whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut  off from among his people. 

Exodus 31:15 Six days may work be  done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the  LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbath day, he  shall surely be put to death. 

Exodus 31:16 Wherefore the children  of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath  throughout their generations, for a perpetual covenant.  

Exodus 31:17 It is a sign between me and the children of Israel  for ever: for in six days the LORD made heaven and earth,  and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.    

Exodus 31:18 And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an  end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables  of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
