21These are the records of the tabernacle, athe tabernacle of the testimony, as they were recorded at the commandment of Moses, the responsibility of the Levites bunder the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest. 22 cBezalel the son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, made all that the Lord commanded Moses; 23and with him was dOholiab the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, an engraver and designer and embroiderer in blue and purple and scarlet yarns and fine twined linen.
