Exodus 29:8

Study

       

8 And thou shalt bring his sons near, and clothe them with the vests.

10014. 'And you shall gird them with belts' means a bond joining things together, in order that all may be held in connection and consequently in a heavenly form. This is clear from the meaning of 'belt' as an outward bond that holds all the truths and forms of the good of faith in connection and form within itself, dealt with in 9341(end), 9828, 9837, 9944.
