1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 2 Ecce, vocavi ex nomine Beseleel filium Uri filii Hur de tribu Juda, 3 et implevi spiritu Dei, sapientia, et intelligentia et scientia in omni opere, 4 ad excogitandum quidquid fabrefieri potest ex auro, et argento, et ære, 5 marmore, et gemmis, et diversitate lignorum. 6 Dedique ei socium Ooliab filium Achisamech de tribu Dan. Et in corde omnis eruditi posui sapientiam: ut faciant cuncta quæ præcepi tibi, 7 tabernaculum fœderis, et arcam testimonii, et propitiatorium, quod super eam est, et cuncta vasa tabernaculi, 8 mensamque et vasa ejus, candelabrum purissimum cum vasis suis, et altaris thymiamatis, 9 et holocausti, et omnia vasa eorum, labrum cum basi sua, 10 vestes sanctas in ministerio Aaron sacerdoti, et filiis ejus, ut fungantur officio suo in sacris: 11 oleum unctionis, et thymiama aromatum in sanctuario, omnia quæ præcepi tibi, facient. 12 Et locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens: 13 Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Videte ut sabbatum meum custodiatis: quia signum est inter me et vos in generationibus vestris: ut sciatis quia ego Dominus, qui sanctifico vos. 14 Custodite sabbatum meum, sanctum est enim vobis: qui polluerit illud, morte morietur; qui fecerit in eo opus, peribit anima illius de medio populi sui. 15 Sex diebus facietis opus: in die septimo sabbatum est, requies sancta Domino; omnis qui fecerit opus in hac die, morietur. 16 Custodiant filii Israël sabbatum, et celebrent illud in generationibus suis. Pactum est sempiternum 17 inter me et filios Israël, signumque perpetuum; sex enim diebus fecit Dominus cælum et terram, et in septimo ab opere cessavit. 18 Deditque Dominus Moysi, completis hujuscemodi sermonibus in monte Sinai, duas tabulas testimonii lapideas, scriptas digito Dei.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 31:18 Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm VII)

    We read that the law was written with the finger of God, and given through Moses, His holy servant: by which finger of God many understand the Holy Ghost. Wherefore if, by the fingers of God, we are right in understanding these same ministers filled with the Holy Ghost, by reason of this same Spirit which worketh in them, since …

    He also was sent forth when the Tabernacle was in making, and filled with wisdom the wise-hearted men who were with Bezaleel.

  3. Quotes verse 31:3 Basil of Caesarea, On the Holy Spirit (Chapter XIX)

    "The Spirit of God," it is said "hath made me," and God filled Bezaleel with "the divine Spirit of wisdom and understanding and knowledge." Such names as these are super-eminent and mighty, but they do not transcend His glory.
