Midrasz do Wyjścia 36:7

They brought all that was required in two mornings. Hence it is written: For the stuff they had was sufficient for all the work (ibid. 36:7). And He said to Moses: Tell the multitude to bring their gifts. This tells you that the Israelites were extremely eager to participate in the work of the Tabernacle. After two days the wise-hearted men, who desired to bring their gifts, were not permitted to do so, since He had already said: Let neither man nor woman make any more work (ibid., v. 6). The leaders were deeply distressed by not having been privileged to bring anything to the work of the Sanctuary. They said: “Since we did not merit to participate in the offerings for the Tabernacle, let us give the garments for the priesthood.” The Holy One, blessed be He, said: Since My sons were so painstaking and conscientious concerning the Tabernacle, let their praise be inscribed in the Torah with reference to the Tabernacle. Therefore it is written: For the stuff they had was sufficient for the work (ibid., v. 7).

(Numb. 7:2:) “Now the princes of Israel drew near (to make an offering).” You find that when Moses proclaimed and said (in Exod. 35:5), “Take from among you an offering [for the Lord],” what did the princes do?¹⁰⁶Cf. Numb. R. 12:16. They said, “Moses did not know [enough] to tell us that the Tabernacle was being made.” What did they do? They did not give a freewill offering. They said, “These people are making the Tabernacle, and now he is telling us to give a freewill offering?” The Holy One, blessed be He, said, “By your lives, you should know that I do not need you (princes).” What is written there (in Exod. 36:3)? “And they (i.e., the Children of Israel) still brought freewill offerings unto him in the morning, in the morning.”¹⁰⁷See above, Exod. 7:3, and the notes there. R. Johanan said, “For two mornings they brought all the supplies (mela'khah) for the Tabernacle, and they were more than enough, as stated (in Exod. 36:7), ‘For they had sufficient supplies (mela'khah), more than enough for all the work (mela'khah) to make it.’” And it is written (in Exod. 39:43), “When Moses saw all the work (mela'khah) […]; then Moses blessed them.”¹⁰⁸Above, 2:20. And with what blessing did he bless them? He said to them, “May the Divine Presence dwell in the work of your hands.” In this world Moses has blessed them; but in the world to come, the Holy One, blessed be He, will bless them, as stated (in Ps. 128:5–6), “The Lord will bless¹⁰⁹Normally the translation would read, MAY THE LORD BLESS, but reading the verb as a simple future indicates that this blessing is reserved for the world to come. you from Zion; may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem…!”

(Numb. 7:2:) THAT THE PRINCES OF ISRAEL DREW NEAR TO MAKE AN OFFERING. You find <the following>: when Moses proclaimed and said (in Exod. 35:5): TAKE FROM AMONG YOU AN OFFERING <FOR THE LORD>, what did the princes do?¹²⁶Tanh., 2:27; cf. Numb. R. 12:16. They said: Moses did not know <enough> to tells us that the Tabernacle was being made. What did they do? They did not give a freewill offering. They said: These people are making the Tabernacle. Now he is telling us to give a freewill offering! The Holy One said: By your life, you should know that I do not need you (princes). What is written there (in Exod. 36:3)? AND THEY (i.e., the children of Israel) [STILL] BROUGHT FREEWILL OFFERINGS UNTO HIM IN THE MORNING, IN THE MORNING.¹²⁷See above, Exod. 7:3, and the notes there. R. Johanan said: For two mornings they brought all the supplies (mela'khah) for the Tabernacle, and they were more than enough, as stated (in Exod. 36:7): FOR THEY HAD SUFFICIENT SUPPLIES (mela'khah), [MORE THAN ENOUGH FOR ALL THE WORK (mela'khah) TO MAKE IT]. (Exod. 39:43:) WHEN MOSES SAW ALL THE WORK (mela'khah), [ …; THEN MOSES BLESSED THEM].¹²⁸Above, 2:20. And with what blessing did he bless them? He said to them: May the Divine Presence dwell in the work of your hands. In this world Moses has blessed them; but in the world to come, the Holy One will bless them, as stated (in Ps. 128:5–6): THE LORD WILL BLESS¹²⁹Normally the translation would read, MAY THE LORD BLESS, but reading the verb as a simple future indicates that this blessing is reserved for the world to come.
