You shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations on the Sabbath day.'"

Moses said to the children of Israel, "Look, God has called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
31 And hath filled him with the spirit of God, with wisdom and understanding and knowledge and all learning.
He has filled him with the Ruach of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship;
32 To devise and to work in gold and silver and brass,
and to make skillful works, to work in gold, in silver, in bronze,
33 And in engraving stones, and in carpenters’ work. Whatsoever can be devised artificially,
in cutting of stones for setting, and in carving of wood, to work in all kinds of skillful workmanship.
34 He hath given in his heart: Ooliab also the son of Achisamech of the tribe of Dan:
He has put in his heart that he may teach, both he, and Oholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.
35 Both of them hath he instructed with wisdom, to do carpenters’ work and tapestry, and embroidery in blue and purple, and scarlet twice dyed, and fine linen, and to weave all things, and to invent all new things.
He has filled them with wisdom of heart, to work all manner of workmanship, of the engraver, of the skillful workman, and of the embroiderer, in blue, in purple, in scarlet, and in fine linen, and of the weaver, even of those who do any workmanship, and of those who make skillful works.
