Exodus 28:3
Read Exodus 28:3 Using Other Translations
What does Exodus 28:3 mean?
And thou shall speak unto all that are wise
hearted
That have knowledge and understanding in mechanic arts,
particularly in making garments; and it required men of more than
ordinary skill to be employed in making these, because they were
uncommon ones, and required a good deal of thought and judgment,
and care and application, to make them exactly as they should be:
whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom;
for besides a common understanding of things, these required a
peculiar gift from God, which some men, as Bezaleel and Aholiab
had:
that they may make Aaron's garments, to consecrate
him
to put upon him at the time of his consecration; and indeed this
was one way, by which, as well as by sacrifices, that he was
consecrated, see ( Exodus 29:1 Exodus 29:5 Exodus 29:6 ) ,
that he may minister unto me in the priest's
office
for the priests, without having these garments on, might not
minister in their office; for when these garments were off, as
they were when they were out of their service, they were as other
men, as laymen, (See Gill on Ezekiel
42:14).
