gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine linen;
pieces of gold, which they beat into thin plates, and drew into wires, and which they worked into stuffs, woollen or linen, or both, of the colours here mentioned; all which were made use of in the ephod, girdle, breastplate see ( Exodus 39:3 ) and had a mystical significance in them.
