15 Tu feras le pectoral du jugement, artistement travaillé; tu le feras du même travail que l'éphod, tu le feras d'or, de fil bleu, pourpre et cramoisi, et de fin lin retors.

9958. Verses 42-43 And make for them linen undergarments to cover their naked flesh; from the loins even to the thighs they shall be. And they shall be on Aaron and on his sons when they go into the tent of meeting or when they approach the altar to minister in the holy place, that they may not bear iniquity and die. It shall be the statute of an age 1 for him and his seed after him.

'And make for them linen undergarments' means an external level of conjugial love. 'To cover their naked flesh' means to prevent inner desires of that love from appearing when they are foul and hellish. 'From the loins even to the thighs they shall be' means the range of those things [composing that external level]. 'And they shall be on Aaron and on his sons' means safety from the hells. 'When they go into the tent of meeting' means in worship representative of all things of heaven and the Church. 'Or when they approach the altar to minister in the holy place' means in worship representative of the Lord Himself. 'That they may not bear iniquity and die' means the elimination of the whole of worship. 'It shall be the statute of an age for him and his seed after him' means laws of order in the representative Church.
