It was Christ who gave to the builders of the tabernacle wisdom to execute the most skillful and beautiful workmanship. He said, "See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and I have filled him with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship. . . . 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." Ex. 31:2-6.

Det var Kristus, som gav tabernaklets bygmestre visdom til at udføre det mest kunstneriske og smukke arbejde. Han sagde: "Se, jeg har kaldet Bezalel, en søn af Hurs søn Uri, af Judas stamme og fyldt ham med Guds Ånd, med kunstsnilde, kløgt og indsigt i alskens arbejde. ..... Og se, jeg har givet ham Oholiab, Ahisamaks søn, af Dans stamme til medhjælper og alle kunstforstandige mænds hjerte har jeg udrustet med kunstsnilde, for at de kan udføre alt, hvad jeg har pålagt dig."
