20. The readiness of the people to offer
30. Bezaleel and Aholiab are called to the work














(22) Both men and women . . . brought bracelets . . . --It is not quite certain what the personal ornaments here mentioned are. The LXX. render ????????? ??? ?????? ??? ?????????? ??? ???????? ??? ?????????, "signets, and earrings, and rings, and chains, and armlets," substituting five terms for four. Rosenmller thinks the khakh was a "nose ring;" others make it a "brooch" or "buckle." The last word of the four, kumaz, cannot possibly mean "tablets." It comes from a root signifying "rounded," and designates probably a bead necklace, such as was often worn by the Egyptians. On the use of personal ornaments by the Hebrew men, as well as women, see Note on Exodus 32:2.

Jewels of gold.--Literally, articles of gold.

And every man that offered, offered an offering of gold.--By repeating the word "offered," our translators have spoiled the sense. Moses is enumerating those who came. There came those who offered bracelets, earrings, rings, &c.; there came also those who offered any (other) offering of gold to the Lord.

Verse 22. - They came, both men and women. That among the Hebrews gold ornaments were worn by men, as well as by women, is indicated by Exodus 3:22, and Exodus 32:2. The Egyptian men at the time of the Exodus wore armlets, bracelets, and sometimes anklets, but not often earrings Earrings, however, had been worn by the household of Jacob (Genesis 35:2). Bracelets. Rather, "buckles" or "brooches." Kalisch says, "nose-rings," and so Gesenins and Rosenmuller. Tablets. Rather, "armlets" (Furst, Cook), or perhaps "necklaces "(Gesenius Kalisch, Knobel). Every man that offered, offered an offering of gold. It is not meant that every man who offered anything gave with it an offering of gold, but simply that, besides those who brought the articles named there were others who brought gold offerings of some different kind.
