“And the third row, a ligure, an agate, and an amethyst.”
Exodus 39:12 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 39:12
The third row—ligure (לֶשֶׁם, leshem, possibly jacinth/amber), agate (שְׁבוֹ, shevo), and amethyst (אַחְלָמָה, achlamah, purple stone)—continues the prismatic display. Amethyst's purple hue connects to royalty; agate's banded patterns suggest covenant layers; ligure's warm glow may symbolize God's favor. The breastplate's twelve stones form a miniature representation of the twelve tribes, teaching that the high priest bore the entire covenant community constantly before God. This anticipates Christ's headship over His church—He knows, loves, and intercedes for each member individually.
