Exodus 28:4

OLD TESTAMENTNEW TESTAMENT

And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and an embroidered coat, a turban, and a band: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron your brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.

Rational and ephod. See chap. xxv. 7. Tunic, long robe or cloak of blue wool. Garment, next the body, and woven very close and thick. Mitre, like a tiara or turban of linen, or rather of byssus, or fine cotton. This was never laid aside in the temple; as, to appear uncovered was then esteemed a mark of insolence. Eneas introduced the Phrygian custom into Italy, of sacrificing with a cap on the head. Girdle, for his under-garment, besides that which formed a part of the ephod. (Calmet) By these vestments, we are admonished to exercise the virtues of discretion (St. Jerome, ep. ad Fab.)
