So they continued bringing to him freewill offerings every morning. 4 Then all the craftsmen who were doing all the work of the sanctuary came, each from the work he was doing, 5 and they spoke to Moses, saying, f“The people bring much more than enough for the service of the work which the Lord commanded us to do.”
