God told Moses to notice how He had "filled some men with the Spirit of God, with skill, ability and knowledge in all kinds of crafts -- to make artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of craftsmanship."
This should be massively encouraging for any artists out there. My access to good Bible commentary on the theological ramifications of the term "filled with the Spirit" in this context is disappointingly shallow, but I bet it's safe to conclude that whatever this means, it's a good thing for the skilled artist. It's like they are given special abilities as well as honor and responsibility by God for work in the arts.
I bet the people of God were anxious to see how all these instruments and the temple/tabernacle they were building would be used and how the sacrifice system and worship would work.
In the same chapter where God reaffirms His giftings of skill to the craftsmen and builders of all the things He asked them to build for the tabernacle, He also lays down his instruction about the Sabbath day. It was a rule to have a day of rest. Isn't it cool that God is serious about rest? He's not a giant taskmaster that wants to beat us into submission and break our backs with relentless work. He's so unlike the Pharaoh and the Egyptian oppressors that worked God's people to the bone. In some ways, I wonder if it was a relief to hear God bring that law down. When you work hard, man, resting is such a welcome relief.
