28 And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen,
28 and the turban of fine linen, the linen caps and the undergarments of finely twisted linen.
28 and the turban of fine linen, and the caps of fine linen, and the linen undergarments of fine twined linen,
28 the turban of fine linen, the linen hats, the linen underwear made of fine twisted linen,
28 a turban of fine linen, exquisite hats of fine linen, short trousers of fine woven linen,
28 The turban and the special head coverings were made of fine linen, and the undergarments were also made of finely woven linen.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Exodus 39:28
Commentary on Exodus 39:1-31
(Read Exodus 39:1-31)
The priests' garments were rich and splendid. The church in its infancy was thus taught by shadows of good things to come; but the substance is Christ, and the grace of the gospel. Christ is our great High Priest. When he undertook the work of our redemption, he put on the clothes of service, he arrayed himself with the gifts and graces of the Spirit, girded himself with resolution to go through the undertaking, took charge of all God's spiritual Israel, laid them near his heart, engraved them on the palms of his hands, and presented them to his Father. And he crowned himself with holiness to the Lord, consecrating his whole undertaking to the honour of his Father's holiness. True believers are spiritual priests. The clean linen with which all their clothes of service must be made, is the righteousness of saints, Revelation 19:8.
