July Convention Notes 2015-[ The Breastplate Of The High Priest ]

The Breastplate of the High Priest in the Old Testament was a splendrous ornament that covered the High Priest’s breast.

God’s instruction to Moses said that the Breastplate was to be made of a richly embroidered cloth in which twelve precious stones were to be set in four rows. Each stone was to be engraved with the name of one of the twelve Tribes of Israel.

The composition of this Breastplate is described in Exodus 28:15-30
