WHAT WERE THE FUNCTIONS OF BAZELEL

He supervised the building of the tabernacle(Exodus 31:4-11). God personally appointed Bezalel and gave him an assistant in the name of Oholiab from the tribe of Dan ,a son of Ahisamach.

The functions were ::-

Through the instructions given through moses by God,they were to make :

  1,  the tabernacle of God

  2,  the ark of the covenant

  3,  the arks cover

  4,  the place of atonement

  5,  All the furnishings of the tabernacle             e.g the tables and accessories

  6,   the incense Alters

  7,  the alter of burnt offering with its                 utensils.

  8,   the wash basins with its stands

  9,   Beautifully stitched garments,for the            priest Aaron and his sons to wear                when ministering.

  10,  Anointing oil,the fragrant incense for           the holy place.

The craft men (Bezalel and oholiab)were to make everything as the lord had commanded them

       Moses was the fittest of all to govern Israel,but Bezalel was fitter than he to build the tabernacle. the work was beautifully done with the varieties of men faculty,so just like Bezalel and oholiab, we are  encouraged to always avail ourselves and work with all of our hearts, Anytime  God wants our services(Amen)

                            CONCLUSION

Have you been told or believed that you would need to become a "professional Christian" in order to work in a way that pleases God? This means that you would be paid to play an overtly religious role like a missionary, a pastor, or another vocation that is directly associated with a Christian organization or church.Where do you believe this idea came from?

Do you feel that a devotee of Jesus Christ who works in a supposed "common work," like being a broker, a specialist, a teacher, a business visionary, or a designer, can be similarly as critical to God as occupations that have explicit otherworldly goals?If not, what difference would it make?
