This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





All that are wise-hearted, i.e. skilful artists. The Hebrews make the heart, not the brain, the seat of wisdom See Job_9:4.



Whom I have filled; either,



1. By my ordinary providence and assistance, giving them both ability and opportunity to learn the arts; or rather,



2. By extraordinary inspiration, which was necessary for the Israelites, whose base and laborious drudgery took off their minds and hands from all ingenious studies and arts. To consecrate him, i.e. to be an outward sign of my calling and consecration of him to my holy service. A metonymical expression.
