Contextual Overview

1 They used the blue, purple and red cloth for the well-made clothing for those working in the holy place. They made the holy clothing for Aaron, just as the Lord had told Moses. 2 Bezalel made the linen vest of gold and blue, purple and red cloth and fine linen. 3 They beat the gold into plates. Then they cut them into strings to be sewed in with the blue, purple and red cloth and the fine linen, the work of an able workman. 4 They made shoulder pieces for the linen vest, joined at its two top ends. 5 The well-made belt on it was made of the same gold, and blue, purple and red cloth and fine linen, just as the Lord had told Moses. 6 They set the onyx stones into beautiful pieces of gold. The names of Israel's sons were cut in the stones like the writing on a ring by an able workman. 7 They were put on the shoulder pieces of the linen vest, to help them remember the sons of Israel, just as the Lord had told Moses. 8 Bezalel made the breast-piece, the work of an able workman. It was like the work of the linen vest, of gold, and blue, purple and red cloth and fine linen. 9 It was as long as it was wide, with one half laid over the other. It was made as long and as wide as a man's fingers can spread. 10 They put four rows of stones on it. The first row was a ruby, a topaz and an emerald.

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
