Bezaleel
(Heb. Betsalel’, , in [otherwise son of, q. d. ] the shadow of God, i.e. under his protection; Sept. v. r. [in Ezra] and ), the name of two men.
1. The artificer to whom was confided by Jehovah the design and execution of the works of art required for the tabernacle in the wilderness
(Exo 31:2; Exo 35:30; Exo 37:1; 2Ch 1:5). B.C. 1657. His charge was chiefly in all works of metal, wood, and stone, Aholiab being associated with him for the textile fabrics; but it is plain from the terms in which the two are mentioned (36:1:2; 38:22), as well as from the enumeration of the works in Bezaleel’s name in 37 and 38, that he was the chief of the two, and master of Aholiab’s department as well as his own. Bezaleel was of the tribe of Judah, the son of Uri, the son of Hur (or Chur). Hur was the offspring of the marriage of Caleb (one of the chiefs of the great family of Pharez) with Ephrath (1Ch 2:20; 1Ch 2:50), and one of his sons, or descendants (comp. Rth 4:20), was Salma or Salmon, who is handed down under the title of father of Bethlehem, and who, as the great-grandfather of Boaz, was the direct progenitor of king David (1Ch 2:51; 1Ch 2:54; Rth 4:21). SEE BETHLEHEM; SEE HUR.
2. One of the sons of Pahath-moab, who divorced the foreign wife whom he had taken after the exile (Ezr 10:30). B.C. 458.

Bezaleel
in the shadow of God; i.e., “under his protection”, the artificer who executed the work of art in connection with the tabernacle in the wilderness (Ex. 31:2; 35:30). He was engaged principally in works of metal, wood, and stone; while Aholiab, who was associated with him and subordinate to him, had the charge of the textile fabrics (36:1, 2; 38:22). He was of the tribe of Judah, the son of Uri, and grandson of Hur (31:2). Mention is made in Ezra 10:30 of another of the same name.

Bezaleel
(“under the shadow i.e. protection of God”.)
1. Son of Uri, son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah, filled with the Spirit of God to work all manner of workmanship in metal, wood, and stone for the tabernacle (Exo 31:1-6), as Aholiab wrought in textile fabrics. Bezaleel was the principal, Aholiab the subordinate (Exo 36:1-2; Exo 38:22; Exo 38:37; Exo 38:38). Hur was the offspring of Caleb and Ephrath, and one of his descendants was Salmon, or Salmah, figuratively “father of Bethlehem,” actually father of Boaz, and progenitor of the royal house of David of Bethlehem (1Ch 2:19; 1Ch 2:50-51; 1Ch 2:54; Rth 4:20-21).
2. Son of Pahath Moab, who took a foreign wife (Ezr 10:30).
