“They made shoulderpieces for it, to couple it together: by the two edges was it coupled together.”
Exodus 39:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Exodus 39:4
The shoulderpieces coupling the ephod together (חָבַר, chavar, to join) created structural unity, enabling the garment to bear the onyx stones engraved with Israel's tribal names (v. 6-7). This 'coupling' illustrates that priestly ministry unites God and people—the mediator bridges the divide. The shoulder placement signifies strength; Christ carries His elect not on weak human shoulders but omnipotent divine shoulders. The ephod's two-piece design, joined together, may prefigure Christ uniting divine and human natures in His person.
