Commentary
1 note on this verseThis site's exposition
This is the thing which the Lord commanded
on Exodus 35:4-9
The offering is asked of whosoever is of a willing heart, with no rate set and no man named. The materials are the goods of Egypt, which Exodus 12:35-36 says the people asked for and were given on the night they left, and which Genesis 15:14 had promised when it said they would come out with great substance. The list runs from gold down to badgers' skins in the same graded order the finished structure keeps, precious metal innermost and plain hide outside.
