Exodus 31:10 - Exposition

The cloths of service . Rather "the vestments of office'— i.e; the distinguishing vestments of the High Priest, which he alone was allowed to wear. These were the blue robe, the ephod, the girdle of the ephod, and the breast-plate ( Exodus 28:6-35 ). The holy garments . The rest of the High Priest's dress— i.e; the linen drawers, the diapered tunic, the inner girdle and the mitre ( Exodus 28:39 , Exodus 28:43 ; Le Exodus 16:4 ), which constituted his whole apparel on the great day of atonement. The garments of his sons— i.e , the linen drawers, tunics, girdles, and caps, mentioned in Exodus 28:40 , Exodus 28:42 .
