In fact, so much money was being given each morning, 4 that finally everyone stopped working 5 and said, "Moses, there is already more money than we need for what the Lord has assigned us to do." 6 So Moses sent word for the people to stop giving, and they did. 7 But there was already more than enough to do what needed to be done.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man,.... Or every ingenious artificer under them: when they began to work is not precisely said, but it is very probable they set about it directly, as soon as they were furnished with materials for it, nor is it said where they wrought; it is very likely there was a particular place, where they were ranged according to their respective manufactories, and where they did their work under the inspection, and by the direction of these two men:
in whom the Lord put wisdom and understanding, to know how to work all manner of work, for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the Lord had commanded; for as all the wisdom and understanding, which Bezaleel and Aholiab had for the building of the tabernacle, and making everything appertaining to it, and for instructing others to do the same, were from the Lord; so all the wisdom, understanding, and capacity in the artificers to learn of them, and work according to their directions, were also from him; who in a very extraordinary manner enlarged their faculties, and increased their natural abilities, to take in what was suggested to them, and perform their work exactly agreeable thereunto.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXXVI
Moses appoints Bezaleel, Aholiab, and their associates, to the work,
and delivers to them the free-will offerings of the people, 1-3.
The people bring offerings more than are needed for the work, and are
only restrained by the proclamation of Moses, 4-7.
The curtains, their loops, taches, c., for the tabernacle, 8-18.
The covering for the tent, 19.
The boards, 20-30.
The bars, 31-34.
The veil and its pillars, 35, 36.
The hangings and their pillars, 37, 38.
NOTES ON CHAP. XXXVI
Verse Exodus 36:1. Then wrought, c. — The first verse of this chapter should end the preceding chapter, and this should begin with verse the second as it now stands, it does not make a very consistent sense. By reading the first word ××¢×©× veasah, then wrought, in the future tense instead of the past, the proper connection will be preserved: for all grammarians know that the conjunction vau is often conversive, i.e., it turns the preterite tense of those verbs to which it is prefixed into the future, and the future into the preterite: this power it evidently has here and joined with the last verse of the preceding chapter the connection will appear thus, Exodus 35:30-35, c.: The Lord hath called by name Bezaleel and Aholiab them hath he filled with wisdom of heart to work all manner of work. Exodus 36:1: And Bezaleel and Aholiab SHALL WORK, and every wise-hearted man, in whom the Lord put wisdom.
