Exodus 28:41

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public Domain

Thou shalt put them upon Aaron thy brother, etc. These words serve to connect the present chapter with the following one. They contain the first intimation that Moses is not only to cause the holy garments to be made, but to invest the priests in them, and further to consecrate both Aaron and his sons by anointing.
