Exodus 28:36

Read in context

Exodus 28:34–38 · Berean Standard Bible

34 alternating the gold bells and pomegranates around the lower hem of the robe.

35 Aaron must wear the robe whenever he ministers, and its sound will be heard when he enters or exits the sanctuary before the LORD, so that he will not die.

36 You are to make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it as on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD.

37 Fasten to it a blue cord to mount it on the turban; it shall be on the front of the turban.

38 And it will be worn on Aaron’s forehead, so that he may bear the iniquity of the holy things that the sons of Israel consecrate with regard to all their holy gifts. It shall always be on his forehead, so that they may be acceptable before the LORD.
