Ibn Ezra on Exodus 35:21/אבן עזרא על שמות ל״ה:כ״א
אויבאו כל איש אשר נשאו לבו. הם חכמי לב והטעם שיש לו לב רם:
1AND THEY CAME, EVERY ONE WHOSE HEART STIRRED HIM UP. The reference is to the wise-hearted.60 The meaning of nesa’o libbo (whose heart stirred him up) is, whosoever had an exalted heart.61 literally means whose heart exalted him. I.E. takes this to mean whose heart exalted him over other craftsmen. He identifies those whose heart stirred them up with the “wise-hearted” mentioned in verse 10. I.E. interprets thus because nowhere else does Scripture indicate that the “wise-hearted” actually came to make the vessels that God had commanded to be made. See Krinsky and Netter.
