Exodus 35:31
Perhaps it would be helpful to understand that the basic meaning of the Hebrew word translated "wisdom" equates to our English word "skill." Proverbs 4:7 tells us, "Above all things, get wisdom." Solomon is saying, "Above all things, become skilled." Skilled in what? God wants us to be skilled in living. In this case, God fills Bezaleel with wisdom, or skill, relating to the responsibility He had given to him.
