Footnotes

  1. 3 Here Moses actually clothes Aaron (cf. v. 13 below for Aaron’s sons). Regarding the various articles of clothing see J. E. Hartley, Leviticus (), and esp. J. Milgrom, Leviticus (), 1:.
  2. 4 The term “tunic” refers to a shirt-like garment worn next to the skin and, therefore, put on first (cf. Exod 28:4, 39–40; 29:5, 8; 39:27). Traditionally this has been translated “coat” (so , ), but that English word designates an outer garment.
  3. 5 Heb “on him”; the referent (Aaron) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
  4. 6 Heb “girded him with the sash” (so ); “tied the cloth belt around him.” The sash fastened the tunic around the waist (Exod 28:4, 39; 29:9; 39:29).
  5. 7 The robe was a long shirt-like over-garment that reached down below the knees. Its hem was embroidered with pomegranates and golden bells around the bottom (Exod 28:4, 31–35; 29:5; 39:22–26).
  6. 8 The ephod was an apron like garment suspended from shoulder straps. It draped over the robe and extended from the chest down to the thighs (Exod 28:4, 6–14, 25–28; 29:5; 39:2–7).
  7. 9 Heb “girded him with.”
  8. 10 The decorated band of the ephod served as a sort of belt around Aaron’s body that would hold the ephod closely to him rather than allowing it to hang loosely across his front (Exod 28:8, 27; 29:5; 39:5, 20).
