Commentary on Exodus 28:40
Coats, bonnets (turbans), and girdles (sashes) for Aaron's sons—the common priests. Unlike Aaron's elaborate garments, theirs are simpler but share essential elements: linen coats (righteousness), bonnets (consecrated minds), girdles (service readiness). All priests, whether high priest (Christ) or common priests (believers), must be clothed in righteousness, mentally consecrated, and ready for service. The shared garments show both distinction (different roles) and unity (same essential clothing).
