Commentary on Exodus 39:18
Fastening the chains' 'two ends' to the gold settings on the ephod's shoulderpieces 'before it' (front) completes the top attachment. The breastplate now hangs from the shoulders—weight-bearing strength supports the heart's affections. This structural hierarchy teaches that priestly ministry requires strong shoulders to sustain compassionate heart. Christ's mediatorial work demonstrates both: omnipotent strength upholds infinite love. The connection's visibility ('before it') teaches that Christ's bearing His people in strength and love is openly displayed before the Father, not hidden.
