Ex. 28:4,28• 4And 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.
 28And they shall bind the breastplate by the rings thereof unto the rings of the ephod with a lace of blue, that it may be above the curious girdle of the ephod, and that the breastplate be not loosed from the ephod. (Ex. 28:4,28)
;
Ex. 39:22• 22And he made the robe of the ephod of woven work, all of blue. (Ex. 39:22)
;
Lev. 8:7• 7And he put upon him the coat, and girded him with the girdle, and clothed him with the robe, and put the ephod upon him, and he girded him with the curious girdle of the ephod, and bound it unto him therewith. (Lev. 8:7)
• This was all of blue under the ephod; I suppose what was essentially heavenly, not the display of purity and graces in man. (“Exodus 28” by J.N. Darby)
• The character of Christ too, as such, is perfectly and entirely heavenly. The sanctuary was the place of its exercise. So the heavenly Priest must Himself be a heavenly Man. (“Exodus 28” by J.N. Darby)
• The robe of the ephod was all of blue—indicative of what is heavenly, adumbrating the heavenly character of the Priest, and it may be, at the same time, the scene of the exercise of His functions, or rather, that His character was suited to the place. He is thus spoken of in the Hebrews not only as holy, harmless, undefiled, and separate from sinners, but also as made higher than the heavens (Heb. 7:26). (“The Priesthood: Exodus 28” by E. Dennett)
