INTRODUCTION TO EXODUS 28
This chapter informs us of the servants God would have to minister to him in the house, or tabernacle, he had ordered to be made, even Aaron and his sons, Exodus 28:1 of the garments they were to wear in their service, Exodus 28:2 and first of the garments of the high priest, and particularly of the ephod, with the girdle, on the shoulder pieces of which were to be two onyx stones, with the names of the children of Israel engraved on them, Exodus 28:6, and that of the breastplate of judgment, with the Urim and Thummum in it,
Exodus 28:15 and of the robe of the ephod, Exodus 28:31, and of the mitre, Exodus 28:36 and then of the garments of the common priests, Exodus 28:40.
