1 Chronicles 24 1-1 Chronicles 24 26
The divisions of Aaron’s descendants were as follows: The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.Nadab and Abihu died before their father did; they had no sons. Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests.David, Zadok( a descendant of Eleazar), and Ahimelech( a descendant of Ithamar) divided them into groups to carry out their assigned responsibilities.The descendants of Eleazar had more leaders than the descendants of Ithamar, so they divided them up accordingly; the descendants of Eleazar had sixteen leaders, while the descendants of Ithamar had eight.They divided them by lots, for there were officials of the holy place and officials designated by God among the descendants of both Eleazar and Ithamar.The scribe Shemaiah son of Nethanel, a Levite, wrote down their names before the king, the officials, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech son of Abiathar, and the leaders of the priestly and Levite families. One family was drawn by lot from Eleazar, and then the next from Ithamar.The first lot went to Jehoiarib, the second to Jedaiah,the third to Harim, the fourth to Seorim,the fifth to Malkijah, 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 Jakin, the twenty-second to Gamul,the twenty-third to Delaiah, the twenty-fourth to Maaziah.This was the order in which they carried out their assigned responsibilities when they entered the LORD’s temple, according to the regulations given them by their ancestor Aaron, just as the LORD God of Israel had instructed him.The rest of the Levites included: Shubael from the sons of Amram, Jehdeiah from the sons of Shubael,the firstborn Isshiah from Rehabiah and the sons of Rehabiah,Shelomoth from the Izharites, Jahath from the sons of Shelomoth.The sons of Hebron: Jeriah, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.The son of Uzziel: Micah; Shamir from the sons of Micah.The brother of Micah: Isshiah. Zechariah from the sons of Isshiah.The sons of Merari: Mahli and Mushi. The son of Jaaziah: Beno.

Exodus 35:25-36:4
Every woman who was skilled spun with her hands and brought what she had spun, blue, purple, or scarlet yarn, or fine linen,and all the women whose heart stirred them to action and who were skilled spun goats’ hair.The leaders brought onyx stones and other gems to be mounted for the ephod and the breastpiece,and spices and olive oil for the light, for the anointing oil, and for the fragrant incense.The Israelites brought a freewill offering to the LORD, every man and woman whose heart was willing to bring materials for all the work that the LORD through Moses had commanded them to do.Moses said to the Israelites,“ See, the LORD has chosen Bezalel son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.He has filled him with the Spirit of God– with skill, with understanding, with knowledge, and in all kinds of work,to design artistic designs, to work in gold, in silver, and in bronze,and in cutting stones for their setting, and in cutting wood, to do work in every artistic craft.And he has put it in his heart to teach, he and Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan.He has filled them with skill to do all kinds of work as craftsmen, as designers, as embroiderers in blue, purple, and scarlet yarn and in fine linen, and as weavers. They are craftsmen in all the work and artistic designers.So Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person in whom the LORD has put skill and ability to know how to do all the work for the service of the sanctuary are to do the work according to all that the LORD has commanded.”Moses summoned Bezalel and Oholiab and every skilled person in whom the LORD had put skill– everyone whose heart stirred him to volunteer to do the work,and they received from Moses all the offerings the Israelites had brought to do the work for the service of the sanctuary, and they still continued to bring him a freewill offering each morning.So all the skilled people who were doing all the work on the sanctuary came from the work they were doing
