37 Και θελεις καμει δια τον ταπητα πεντε στυλους εκ σιττιμ, και θελεις περικαλυψει αυτους με χρυσιον· τα αγκιστρα αυτων θελουσιν εισθαι χρυσα· και θελεις χυσει δι' αυτους πεντε υποβασια χαλκινα.

9598. 'With the work of a designer you shall make them' means the power of understanding. This is clear from the meaning of 'a designer' as the power of understanding, for this thinks things out, then acts in accord with what it thinks. The fact that the power of understanding, to which wisdom, intelligence, and knowledge belong, is meant is clear from the following places, where it speaks about Bezalel,

I have called by name Bezalel, and I have filled him with the spirit of God, so far as wisdom, and intelligence, and knowledge, and all workmanship are concerned, to compose designs, 1 to work 2 in gold, in silver, and in bronze, and in the cutting of stones for setting, 3 and in the carving of wood, to work 2 in every kind of artistic workmanship. 4 Exodus 31:2-5; 35:30-33.

The fact that the power of understanding is meant is also clear from what has been shown just above in 9596.
