Phrase of Scripture   Correlating Passages TSK Help

a plate of pure gold   The word tzitz, which we translate a plate, properly signifies a flower. It is rendered by the LXX. [petalon] a leaf, and is called nezer, a crown in Exd 29:6 and [diadema] a diadem, by the author of the book of Wisdom, Exd 28:24. Josephus says that it was adorned with three rows of the flower which the Greeks call [kyanos.] It was two fingers broad, of a circular form, suited to the shape of the head, and so long that it reached from ear to ear, and was fastened upon a blue lace or ribband, which was tied behind the head; and as the plate reached only half round the head, the remaining part of the ribband was highly ornamented with artificial flowers.
grave upon it   Exd 28:9,11
