See, I have called by name Bezalel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah; and I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship.
רְאֵה קָרָאתִי בְשֵׁם בְּצַלְאֵל בֶּן-אוּרִי בֶן-חוּר לְמַטֵּה יְהוּדָה וָאֲמַלֵּא אֹתוֹ רוּחַ אֱ-לֹהִים בְּחָכְמָה וּבִתְבוּנָה וּבְדַעַת וּבְכָל-מְלָאכָה

In this week's Torah portion which we will read on Shabbat, we learn about Bezalel, ּthe very talented artisan who constructed the Tabernacle and its furnishings. It says that “Bezalel did everything that God commanded.” In Hebrew, Bezalel means "in the shadow of God" בְּצֵל אֵל - a fitting name for one who understood that all of his talents were a gift from God, and never veered from His instructions. Now you can learn your Hebrew name and proudly wear it on a beautiful Hebrew Name Necklace.
