Ibn Ezra on Exodus 35:34/אבן עזרא על שמות ל״ה:ל״ד
אועוד ולהורות. כי יש חכמים רבים שהם קשים להורות אחרים והנה אהליאב הוא חבירו בכל המלאכות, גם להורות לאחר בחכמה על כן אמר על שניהם עושי כל מלאכה וחושבי מחשבות:
1[AND HE HATH PUT IN HIS HEART THAT HE MAY TEACH.] In addition to the above, God put in his heart the ability to teach because there are many wise men who teach with great difficulty. Now Oholiab was Bezalel’s colleague in all the crafts and in the skill of teaching to others. Scripture therefore says with regard to both of them, even of them that do any workmanship, and of those that devise skilful works81, so were they colleagues in the ability to teach these skills. (v. 35).
