Please make comments according to the relationship to what you see in these scrptures. I thought it as quite profound.

Exodus 31:15
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying ,
2 See , I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of **Judah:
3 And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,
4 To *devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, 5 And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

Bezaleel means under God's shadow (i.e. protection)

Hebrews 8:5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See , saith he , that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount.

John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up .

Mark 14:58 We heard him say , I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

1 Corinthians 3:16-17
16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy ; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are .

Hebrews 8:13
In that he saith , A new covenant, he hath made the first old . Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.

Hebrews 9:1-5
1 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.
2 For there was a tabernacle made ; the first, wherein was the candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread ; which is called the sanctuary.
3 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all ;
4 Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, wherein was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded , and the tables of the covenant;
5 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly .

Hebrews 7:12-14
12 For the priesthood being changed , there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. 1
4 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of **Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.

Hebrews 9:11 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come , by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say , not of this building;

Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a *good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:

Hebrews 13:21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, *working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
