Contextual Overview

1 And from the blue and the purple and the crimson they made woven garments for serving in the sanctuary. And they made the holy garments which were for Aaron, as Jehovah commanded Moses. 2 And he made the ephod of gold, blue, and purple, and crimson, and twined bleached linen . 3 And they beat out sheets of gold, and cut threads to work into the midst of the blue, and into the midst of the purple, and into the midst of the crimson, and into the midst of the bleached linen , the work of an artisan. 4 They made shoulderpieces for it, joined together; it was joined on its two ends. 5 And its fastening band was on it; it was of it, like its work, gold, blue, and purple, and crimson, and twined bleached linen , as Jehovah commanded Moses. 6 And they made stones of onyx set in plaited work of gold, engraved with engravings of a signet, according to the names of the sons of Israel. 7 And he put them on the shoulderpieces of the ephod, memorial stones for the sons of Israel, as Jehovah commanded Moses. 8 And he made the breast pocket, a work of an artisan, like the work of the ephod: gold, blue, purple, and crimson, and twined bleached linen ; 9 it was square. They made the breast pocket double; its length a span and its width a span, doubled. 10 And they set it in four rows of stones: one row, the first row: a ruby, a topaz and an carbuncle.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

a ligure: Leshem, the ligure, the same as the jacinth, or hyacinth, a precious stone of a deep red, with a considerable tinge of yellow. Theophrastus and Pliny say it resembles the carbuncle, of a brightness sparkling like fire.

an agate: Shevo, the agate, a semi-pellucid compound gem, formed of different simple minerals, as chalcedony, cornelian, jasper. horn-stone, quartz, amethyst, opal, etc.; joined irregularly or in layers. It is of a white, reddish, yellowish, or greenish ground; and so variously figured in its substance as to represent plants, trees, animals, and other objects.

an amethyst: Achlamah, an amethyst, a transparent gem, composed of a strong blue and deep red; and according as either prevails, affording different tinges of purple, sometimes approaching to violet, and sometimes even fading to a pale rose colour.

Reciprocal: Exodus 28:19 - a ligure
