Et pones tiaram in capite ejus, et laminam sanctam super tiaram,
et pones tiaram in capite eius et diadema sanctum super tiaram
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
mitre: Mitznepheth, from tzanaph, to wrap round, evidently means that covering of the head so universal in eastern countries, which we call turband, which consists of a cap, and a sash of fine linen or silk wound round its bottom. Exodus 28:36-39, Leviticus 8:9
Reciprocal: Exodus 28:37 - the mitre it Leviticus 21:12 - for the crown Zechariah 3:5 - fair Zechariah 6:11 - make
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And thou shall put the mitre upon his head,.... Which was made of linen, and was a wrap of linen about his head in the form of a turban:
and put the holy crown upon the mitre; the holy crown was a plate of gold which had these words, "holiness to the Lord", engraven on it; and so says the Targum of Jonathan,
"on which the holy name was engraven;''
the mitre was upon the top of his head, this in the forefront of that; it was upon Aaron's forehead, and reached from ear to ear, and was fastened behind with a blue lace; this was like a crown or a diadem, and denotes the honour and dignity of the priestly office: Christ is a priest on his throne, and his saints are a royal priesthood, even kings as well as priests unto God.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The consecration of the priests. See the notes to Lev. 8–9.
Exodus 29:4
Door of the tabernacle - Entrance of the tent. See Leviticus 8:3.
Exodus 29:27
The “waving” was the more solemn process of the two: it was a movement several times repeated, while “heaving” was simply a “lifting up” once.
Exodus 29:33
A stranger - One of another family, i. e. in this case, one not of the family of Aaron.
