Contextual Overview

1 And of the blew, and purple, and scarlet, they made clothes of seruice, to doe seruice in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as the Lord commanded Moses. 2 And he made the Ephod of gold, blew, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linnen. 3 And they did beate the golde into thinne plates, and cut it into wiers, to worke it in the blew, and in the purple, and in the scarlet, and in the fine linnen, with cunning worke. 4 They made shoulder pieces for it, to couple it together; by the two edges was it coupled together. 5 And the curious girdle of his Ephod that was vpon it, was of the same, according to the worke thereof: of gold, blew, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linnen, as the Lord commanded Moses. 6 And they wrought Onix stones enclosed in ouches of gold, grauen as signets are grauen, with the names of the children of Israel. 7 And hee put them on the shoulders of the Ephod, that they should be stones for a memoriall to the children of Israel, as the Lord commanded Moses. 8 And he made the brestplate of cunning worke, like the worke of the Ephod, of gold, blew, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linnen. 9 It was foure square, they made the brestplate double: a spanne was the length therof, and a spanne the breadth thereof being doubled. 10 And they set in it foure rowes of stones: the first row was a Sardius, a Topaz, and a Carbuncle: this was the first row.
