1. riqmah, variegated by “curious” needlework or by different colors (Ezek. 16:10, 13, 18; Ezek. 26:16; Ezek. 27:7, 16, 24). The same Hebrew word is translated “divers colors” in reference to the precious stones David had gathered together for the temple-service 1 Chron. 29:2), and in the description of the great eagle in Ezekiel 17:3. Also “embroidering” in colors (compare Ex. 35:35; Ex. 38:23).

2. tashbets, checker-work, used in the “broidered coat,” which formed part of the high priest’s dress (Ex. 28:4). Also (shabats) in “thou shalt embroider the coat of fine linen” (Ex. 28:39). The stones in the breastplate were to be “interwoven” in gold (Ex. 28:20).
3. πλέγμα, “twined or plaited” hair, with which the Christian women were not to adorn themselves (1 Tim. 2:9).
“Needlework (Maaseh roqem)” From Concise Bible Dictionary:
The veil of the tabernacle, the ten curtains, and the hangings for the door, and for the gate of the court were of needlework of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine-twined linen. The coat of fine linen for the priest was embroidered, and the girdle was of fine-twined linen, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, of needlework (Ex. 26:36; Ex. 27:16; Ex. 28:39; Ex. 36:37; Ex. 38:18; Ex. 39:29; Judg. 5:30; Psa. 45:14). See BROIDERED. It is typical of the graces and glories which combine in the person of our great High Priest the Lord Jesus Christ.
