“And a mitre of fine linen, and goodly bonnets of fine linen, and linen breeches of fine twined linen,”
Exodus 39:28 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 39:28
The mitre (מִצְנֶפֶת, mitsnefet, turban) for Aaron, bonnets (מִגְבָּעוֹת, migba'ot, caps) for his sons, and linen breeches (מִכְנְסֵי־בָד, michnesei-vad) for modesty complete the priestly wardrobe. The head coverings distinguish office (Aaron's elaborate mitre vs. sons' simpler caps) while the linen breeches ensure modesty in God's presence (Exodus 28:42-43). The emphasis on covering (head to loins) teaches that approaching God requires complete, proper attire—not casual or careless. Christ, perfectly clothed in righteousness, grants believers proper covering for divine presence.
