Exodus 35:4
2 For six days work may be done, but the seventh day shall be your holy day, a Sabbath of complete rest to the LORD. Whoever does any work on that day must be put to death.
3 Do not light a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.”
Moses also told the whole congregation of Israel, “This is what the LORD has commanded:
5 Take from among you an offering to the LORD. Let everyone whose heart is willing bring an offering to the LORD: gold, silver, and bronze;
6 blue, purple, and scarlet yarn; fine linen and goat hair;
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
