1 Chronicles 24 1-1 Chronicles 24 26
The divisions of the descendants of Aaron were as follows: Aaron’s sons were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.But Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and they had no sons, so Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.Together with Zadok from the sons of Eleazar and Ahimelech from the sons of Ithamar, David divided them according to the assigned duties of their service.Since more leaders were found among Eleazar’s descendants than Ithamar’s, they were divided accordingly: 16 heads of ancestral houses were from Eleazar’s descendants, and eight heads of ancestral houses were from Ithamar’s.They were assigned by lot, for there were officers of the sanctuary and officers of God among both Eleazar’s and Ithamar’s descendants.The secretary, Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, recorded them in the presence of the king and the officers, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the heads of families of the priests and the Levites. One ancestral house was taken for Eleazar, and then one for Ithamar.The first lot fell to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,the third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,the fifth to Malchijah, the sixth to Mijamin,the seventh to Hakkoz, the eighth to Abijah,the ninth to Jeshua, the tenth to Shecaniah,the eleventh to Eliashib, the twelfth to Jakim,the thirteenth to Huppah, the fourteenth to Jeshebeab,the fifteenth to Bilgah, the sixteenth to Immer,the seventeenth to Hezir, the eighteenth to Happizzez,the nineteenth to Pethahiah, the twentieth to Jehezkel,the twenty-first to Jachin, the twenty-second to Gamul,the twenty-third to Delaiah, and the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.These had their assigned duties for service when they entered the Lord’s temple, according to their regulations, which they received from their ancestor Aaron, as the Lord God of Israel had commanded him.As for the rest of Levi’s sons: from Amram’s sons: Shubael; from Shubael’s sons: Jehdeiah.From Rehabiah: from Rehabiah’s sons: Isshiah was the first.From the Izharites: Shelomoth; from Shelomoth’s sons: Jahath.Hebron’s sons: Jeriah the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.From Uzziel’s sons: Micah; from Micah’s sons: Shamir.Micah’s brother: Isshiah; from Isshiah’s sons: Zechariah.Merari’s sons: Mahli and Mushi, and from his sons, Jaaziah his son.

Exodus 35:25-36:4
Every skilled woman spun yarn with her hands and brought it: blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen.And all the women whose hearts were moved spun the goat hair by virtue of their skill.The leaders brought onyx and gemstones to mount on the ephod and breastpiece,as well as the spice and oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.So the Israelites brought a freewill offering to the Lord, all the men and women whose hearts prompted them to bring something for all the work that the Lord, through Moses, had commanded to be done.Moses then said to the Israelites:“ Look, the Lord has appointed by name Bezalel son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.He has filled him with God’s Spirit, with wisdom, understanding, and ability in every kind of craftto design artistic works in gold, silver, and bronze,to cut gemstones for mounting, and to carve wood for work in every kind of artistic craft.He has also given both him and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, the ability to teach others.He has filled them with skill to do all the work of a gem cutter; a designer; an embroiderer in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linen; and a weaver. They can do every kind of craft and design artistic designs.Bezalel, Oholiab, and all the skilled people are to work based on everything the Lord has commanded. The Lord has given them wisdom and understanding to know how to do all the work of constructing the sanctuary.”So Moses summoned Bezalel, Oholiab, and every skilled person in whose heart the Lord had placed wisdom, everyone whose heart moved him, to come to the work and do it.They took from Moses’ presence all the contributions that the Israelites had brought for the task of making the sanctuary. Meanwhile, the people continued to bring freewill offerings morning after morning.Then all the craftsmen who were doing all the work for the sanctuary came one by one from the work they were doing
