And thou shalt make holy garments for Aaron thy brother for glory and for beauty.
And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom, that they may make Aaron's garments to consecrate him, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.
And these are the garments which they shall make; a breastplate, and an ephod, and a robe, and a broidered coat, a mitre, and a girdle: and they shall make holy garments for Aaron thy brother, and his sons, that he may minister unto me in the priest's office.

New Defender's Study Bible Notes

28:2 holy garments. The high priest, Aaron, was to be God’s representative, as it were, to the people, as well as the people’s representative to God. It was fitting, therefore that his garments be “for glory and for beauty.”


28:3 spirit of wisdom. Joshua, like these craftsmen making the beautiful garments of the high priest, was “full of the spirit of wisdom” (Deuteronomy 34:9). Two very different types of occupation are detailed, yet both were carried out “heartily, as unto the Lord” (Colossians 3:23) in the wisdom of the Spirit of God.
