shabbat - Shabbos pushes off Mishkan twice



Rashi to Shemos 35:2 explains that by teaching about Shabbos before the Mishkan, Moshe was emphasizing that Shabbos could not be pushed off to build the Mishkan.


However, Rashi made the statement from the juxtaposition between Shabbos and the Mishkan in Shemos 31:13. Why did this teaching need to be taught twice?


If you'll say that once is from HaShem to Moshe and once is from Moshe to the people, why couldn't the passuk just say the latter and I will understand the former on my own?
