Commentary for I Chronicles 29:5
לַזָּהָ֤ב לַזָּהָב֙ וְלַכֶּ֣סֶף לַכֶּ֔סֶף וּלְכָל־מְלָאכָ֖ה בְּיַ֣ד חָרָשִׁ֑ים וּמִ֣י מִתְנַדֵּ֔ב לְמַלֹּ֥אות יָד֛וֹ הַיּ֖וֹם לַיהוָֽה׃
of gold for the things of gold, and of silver for the things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of artificers. Who then offereth willingly to consecrate himself this day unto the LORD?’
Rashi on I Chronicles
The gold for the gold and the silver for the silver and for all the work (and I gave it) into the hands of the craftsmen the artisans, and this is what I prepared for the Temple, and although I amassed all this... and whoever of you... volunteers to consecrate himself today for the Lord to bring gold, silver, or anything for the building, on the model of (Ex. 35:22): “... all moved by their hearts: they brought brooches and nose-rings.”

to consecrate lit., to fill his hand; on the model of (ibid. 29:9): “... and you shall fill the hand... of Aaron and the hand of his sons,” which the Targum renders: “and you shall offer up the sacrifice of Aaron.”
