4 And it came to pass that after I had finished the ship, according to the word of the Lord, my brethren beheld that it was good, and that the workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine; wherefore, they did humble themselves again before the Lord.

"The workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine." What does that all entail? Was it beautiful as well as functional? What all does "workmanship" include?


The dictionary says it's "the degree of skill with which a product is made." Wow. I wonder how different the boat was from the "manmade" kind? (v.2) I want to see that boat! How was it different/better?


It makes me wonder what I'm building, or trying to do, that could be so much better with God's input and direction.


Hmm. I will pray about that. I will pray to know where I need God's help- so my life can be more God-made and less me-made.
