John Gill's Exposition
John Gill (1697–1771) · Exposition of the Old and New Testament · 18th-century historical commentary
“Every one that did offer an offering of silver and brass brought the Lord’s offering, etc.] Every one that had any quantity of either of these, whose heart was inclined freely to part therewith, brought it as a freewill offering to the Lord: and every man with whom was shittim wood; or acacia, a sort of wood which grew pretty plentifully in those parts; and such who had cut it down for some use or another, and were disposed to part with it for any work of the service; of which many things were to be made, whether they were trees they had felled, or planks and boards they had cut them into: brought [it]; a sufficient quantity of it, for the various uses it was to be put unto.”
