Chapter 36

אמדי העבדה. יוֹתֵר מִכְּדֵי צֹרֶךְ הָעֲבוֹדָה:

1מדי העבדה means more than is sufficient for the needs of the work.

אויכלא. לְשׁוֹן מְנִיעָה:

1ויכלא is an expression for withholding.

אוהמלאכה היתה דים לכל המלאכה. וּמְלֶאכֶת הַהֲבָאָה הָיְתָה דַיָּם שֶׁל עוֹשֵׂי הַמִּשְׁכָּן, לְכָל הַמְּלָאכָה שֶׁל מִשְׁכָּן, לַעֲשׂוֹת אוֹתָהּ וּלְהוֹתֵר:

1והמלאכה היתה דים (lit., and the work was their sufficiency — was enough for them — for all the work) — this means the work of contributing was the sufficiency of (was enough for) the workers at the Tabernacle, for all the work connected with the Tabernacle to make it and even to leave some over.

בוהותר. כְּמוֹ וְהַכְבֵּד אֶת לִבּוֹ (שמות ח'), וְהַכּוֹת אֶת מוֹאָב (מלכים ב ג'):

2והותר is an infinitive similar to, (Exodus 8:11) “[But when Pharaoh saw that there was respite] he allowed his heart to be hardened (והכבד‎)”; (2 Kings 3:24) “and they smote (והכות) Moab” (infinitives used in perfect sense).
