Exodus 36:3-7 - Excess Contributions

3 and they received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to do the work for the service of the sanctuary, and they still continued to bring him a freewill offering each morning.

4 So all the skilled people who were doing all the work on the sanctuary came from the work they were doing 5 and told Moses, "The people are bringing much more than is needed for the completion of the work which the Lord commanded us to do!"

6 Moses instructed them to take his message throughout the camp, saying, "Let no man or woman do any more work for the offering for the sanctuary." So the people were restrained from bringing any more. 7 Now the materials were more than enough for them to do all the work.
