Tabernacle of Moses

While Moses was teacing the people the law of God, he was also preparing the sanctuary for God's presence, the tabernacle in which He was to appear at times, and which was to be borne about by the Israelites in their wanderings.  Every detail of the of the main Tabernacle of Moses had been dictated to him on Sinai, and the master workman had been pointed out to him and divinely inspired with the genius needed for the job.

This master-workman was Bezaleel of the tribe of Judah.  He worked earnestly with "every wise hearted man" of Israel, teaching each workman what to do, planning and supervising all, until the building or tent of the tabernacle was ready in its full beauty, and the "ark" was made, with the numerous sacrificial implements of worship. 

While Bezaleel worked in wood and metals, he had a comrade, Aholiab of the tribe of Dan, who was also inspired by God, so as to be able to work with cloth and needlework.  Aholiab directed the making of the curtains for the tabernacle, and above all, he created the garments of the high priests.
