Commentary on Exodus 37:1

Theological / Devotional

And Bezaleel. This chapter records the execution of instructions appearing in chs. 25:10-39; 30:1-5, 23-25, 34, 35, to which the reader is referred. Bezaleel commissioned others to do most of the work, but he reserved for himself the construction of the ark, its cherubim, and its mercy seat. This was undoubtedly because the ark was the most important article of equipment in the sanctuary, being, as it was, the abode of the Sacred Presence, and he intended it to be his masterpiece.
