This piece celebrates artistry and craftsmanship, highlighting the crucial role artists and craftspeople play in shaping our spiritual imagination and places of worship. The root of the word Amen (א.מ.ן) is shared with the words art, craft, practice, faith, treaty, support, trust, and fostering (a child), alluding to faith and spirituality as an active, creative, and artistic process.

Tehovah instructs Mosha to enlist Bezalelah (“Under the shadow of the Goddess”) for the task of constructing the Tent of Meeting. The breath of Elohin fills Bezalelah with wisdom, intelligence, and knowledge, marking the pinnacle of creativity. Following in significance is Ohaliem, whose name translates to "My tent is mother." She embodies the wisdom of the heart, applying it to all craftswomanship. These verses are design in the shape of a precious stone bezel setting in gold. The bezel stone-setting technique is ancient and was employed as early as 4500 BCE in the Sumerian civilization.
