Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 39:1-31

The Making of the Priestly Garments (Exodus 39:1-31 ). Exodus 39:1 ‘And of the bluey-violet, and purpley-red, and scarlet, they made finely wrought garments, for ministering in the holy place, and made the holy garments for Aaron, as Yahweh commanded Moses.’ We now move on to the making of the priestly garments to be used by the priests for ministering in the Holy Place, and those made especially for the use of ‘the Priest’. All was done ‘as Yahweh commanded Moses’ (a constant refrain). The... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 39:1-43

Exodus 39. P s. Vestments and Summary. Exodus 39:1 a and Exodus 39:1 b are doublets, and Exodus 39:1 a perhaps once began a full account of the woven fabrics, now given in another place. The explanation in Exodus 39:3 as to the way in which they worked in the gold is new here. There is abridgment in some verses, and after a sentence concluding the full account of the constructive process a fresh summary follows, the workers being generalised ( Exodus 39:32; Exodus 39:42) as “ the children of... read more

CRITICAL NOTES.—Exodus 39:9. Doubled = kafal]. This word is repeated again at the close of the Verse to show that the length of the breastplate was one span after it was doubled, so that its actual length was two spans, and because this was not expressed with sufficient distinctness in Exodus 33:16.MAIN HOMILETICS OF THE PARAGRAPH.—Exodus 39:1-31PREPARATION OF THE PRIEST’S CLOTHES“And of the blue, and purple, and scarlet, they made cloths of service, to do service in the holy place, and made... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Exodus 39:14

Exodus 39:9-10 , Exodus 39:14 The breastplate of the Jewish high-priest is a beautiful type of intercession. When the high-priest appeared before God in his full sacerdotal attire, there would be the twelve names upon his heart, indicative of his love and care for the whole people of Israel. The names upon the breastplate betoken the individuality of Christ's intercession for His people. Every Christian ought to intercede, because he is in a certain important sense a priest, and intercession... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Exodus 39:1-43

REFLECTIONS. After the short space of four or five months, we find this mystical tabernacle fully completed. It was a portable and temporary habitation of the most high God, and a figure of his true church in her pilgrimage to a better world. The several parts of the sanctuary are here repeated, says Mr. Ainsworth, to show that every thing was made after the model exhibited on the mount, and according to the divine command. God who alone saw the future glory of his church, and knew how he... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Exodus 39:1-43

THE HOLY GARMENTS OF THE PRIESTS, Exodus 39:1-31 See notes on Exodus 28:0. ALL BROUGHT TO MOSES AND APPROVED, Exodus 39:32-43. How long the preparation of the different parts of the tabernacle required we are not told, but the zeal and diligence implied in the willing offerings of the people warrant the belief that the whole would have been completed in a few months. According to Josephus, the whole time they were engaged in this work was seven months. ( Ant., 3: 8, 4.) As Moses had received... read more
