Aaron and his sons were priests. The Lord endowed certain Israelites with special talents and they were chosen to create fine priestly vestments for Aaron, Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. Using gold, violet, purple, and scarlet yarn and fine linens they were to make breastplates, ephos, robes, brocaded tunics, miters and sashes. The garments were to be made so exquisitely that they would set off the priests from the rest of the Israelites. God wanted His priests to be distinguised and easily recognizable. Another thing He instructed Aaron to do was to have the sons of Israels names sewn into his breastplate so that when he made decisions regarding them they would be on his heart.
