Rashi
ויברך אותם משה. אמר להם יהי רצון שתשרה שכינה במעשה ידיכם, וִיהִי נֹעַם ה' אֱלֹהֵינוּ עָלֵינוּ וגו' (תהלים צ, יז), והוא אחד מי"א מזמורים שבתפלה למשה:
And Moshe blessed them. He said to them: May it be His Will that the Shechinah rest on the work of your hands. May the pleasantness of our God be upon us, etc. This is one of the eleven Psalms [attributed to Moshe] beginning with the Psalm that opens with “תְּפִלָּה לְמשֶׁה .”
ויביאו את המשכן וגו'. שלא היו יכולין להקימו, ולפי שלא עשה משה שום מלאכה במשכן, הניח לו הקב"ה הקמתו, שלא היה יכול להקימו שום אדם, מחמת כובד הקרשים שאין כח באדם לזקפן, ומשה העמידו, אמר משה לפני הקב"ה, איך אפשר הקמתו על ידי אדם, אמר לו עסוק אתה בידך, נראה כמקימו והוא נזקף וקם מאליו, וזהו שנאמר (שמות מ, יז) הוּקַם הַמִּשְׁכָּן, הוקם מאליו. מדרש רבי תנחומא (פקודי י"א):
They brought the mishkon, etc. — for they were unable to erect it. Because Moshe did no work whatsoever in the mishkon God left it for him to erect, for no man was able to erect it because of the weight of the planks for no man had the strength to stand them up, but Moshe stood them up. [Actually, Moshe himself could also not do it but...] Moshe said to God: How is it possible for man to erect it? [Whereupon] He answered him: “You busy yourself with your hand”! It appeared as if he (Moshe) had erected it but it had stood upright of its own. This is what is meant by what is said: “The mishkon was erected” — it was erected of its own. From the Midrash of Rabbi Tanchuma.
