Midrasz do Przysłów 22:1
נִבְחָ֣ר שֵׁ֭ם מֵעֹ֣שֶׁר רָ֑ב מִכֶּ֥סֶף וּ֝מִזָּהָ֗ב חֵ֣ן טֽוֹב׃
Cenniejszem imię nad bogactwo wielkie, nad srebro i złoto wziętość dobra.
Midrash Tanchuma
You know this is so from the fact that Bezalel was granted the privilege of building the Tabernacle because he had earned a good name, as it is written: A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favor rather than silver and gold (Prov. 22:1). Whence do we know this? From the name by which he called him: See, the Lord hath called by name Bezalel.3The name Bezalel can be read as betzal el “in the shadow of God.”
