Wyjścia 35:21 Komentarz: Ibn Ezra, Ramban, Rashbam & Or HaChaim

These are the wise of heart and the reason is that their hearts were elevated

AND THEY CAME, EVERY ONE WHOSE HEART STIRRED HIM UP. This is said with reference to the wise men who did the work, for we do not find the use of this phrase, “the stirring up of the heart,” in connection with those who merely brought the donations; Scripture rather mentions “generosity of heart” with reference to them. Now the reason for using such a phrase, whose heart stirred him up, is because they undertook to do the work, although there was no one amongst them who had learned these crafts from an instructor, or had trained his hands at all to do them. Rather, a person who felt in his nature that he knew how to do such skills, his heart was lifted up in the ways of the Eternal³⁰II Chronicles 17:6. to come before Moses and say to him, “I will do all that my lord speaks.” I have already mentioned this in another section.³¹Above, 31:2. Thus Scripture is stating that there came before Moses every one whose heart stirred him up to undertake the work, and every one whom his spirit made willing brought the offering. Then Moses said to all of them that G-d had called by name Bezalel,³²Further, Verse 30. and Oholiab.³³Ibid., Verse 34. Afterwards Moses called them and every wise-hearted man³⁴Ibid., 36:2. to come before him, and he gave them the whole donation [brought by the people so that they could proceed to do the work].
