Footnotes

7 The verb קָרָא (qara’) plus the preposition “to”—“to call to” someone means “to summon” that person.
8 Here there is a slight change: “in whose heart Yahweh had put skill.”
9 Or “whose heart was willing.”
10 The verb means more than “approach” or “draw near”; קָרַב (qarav) is the word used for drawing near the altar as in bringing an offering. Here they offer themselves, their talents and their time.
