~ Offerings for the Tabernacle ~

Moses said to the whole Israelite community,
"This is what the Lord has commanded:
From what you have,
take an offering for the Lord.
Everyone who is willing
is to bring to the Lord an offering
of gold, silver and bronze;
blue, purple and scarlet yarn and fine linen;
goat hair;
ram skins dyed red and hides of sea cows;
acacia wood;
olive oil for the light;
spices for the anointing oil and for the fragrant incense;
and onyx stones and other gems
to be mounted on the ephod and breastpiece.

(Exodus 35:4-9)
