Exodus 28:13

Verse Exodus 28:13. Ouches of gold] משבצת mishbetsoth, strait places, sockets to insert the stones in, from שבץ shabats, to close, inclose, straiten. Socket, in this place, would be a more proper translation, as ouch cannot be traced up to any legitimate authority. It appears sometimes to signify a hook, or some mode of attaching things together.
