The table, and his staves, and all his vessels, and the shewbread,
The verse lists the table, its carrying poles, all its vessels, and the showbread among the furnishings prepared for the wilderness tabernacle. These items belong to the account of building God's house in the wilderness, a work the Israelites supported with willing gifts, freewill offerings, and labor. For this work the people gave their valuables and materials so abundantly that Moses had to tell them to stop bringing gifts because enough had been brought.
The building called for special freewill offerings beyond the regular tithes, sin-offerings, thank-offerings, and other systematic donations. These calls were made by God upon all the people in proportion to the amount each possessed, for their own good and to sustain His service. The call to give let each person share in the blessing of supporting God's work. The making of these sacred furnishings demanded the exactness, skill, wisdom, and perfection God required in the tabernacle, qualities also required in every line of service to Him.
