{Pitdah,} is constantly rendered by the LXX. [ ,]
and Vulgate, {topazius,} with which agrees Josephus. The
topaz is a precious stone, of a pale, dead green, with a
mixture of yellow, sometimes of a fine yellow; and hence
called chrysolyte by the moderns, from its gold color.

VERSE 30
- the Urim and Thummim.
[ ,] the Urim and Thummim, lights and
perfections; rendered by the LXX. [ ,]
manifestation and truth; and, by the Vulgate, {doctrina et
veritas,} doctrine and truth. Among the various and
contradictory opinions respecting the form and substance of
these mysterious appendages, the most probable seems to be
that of Josephus, Philo, Bp. Patrick, Parkhurst, and the
Jewish writers generally; who state, that they were no other
than the twelve precious stones of the high priest's
breastplate. In support of this statement, it is observed,
1. That in the description of the high priest's breastplate,
Exod. 39:8, et seq., the Urim and Thummim are not mentioned,
but only the rows of stones; and on the contrary, in Lev.
8:8, the Urim and Thummim are expressly mentioned, but not a
word is said of the four rows of stones. 2. As Moses has
given such a particular description of every thing relative
to the high priest's dress, these would certainly have been
described had they been different from what was previously
mentioned.

VERSE 35
- goeth in.
* Le 16:2 Heb 9:12
VERSE 36
- a plate of pure gold.
The word {tzitz,} which we translate a plate, properly
signifies a flower. It is rendered by the LXX. [ ,] a
leaf, and is called {nezer,} a crown in ch. 29:6 and [ ,]
a diadem, by the author of the book of Wisdom, ch. 28:24.
Josephus says that it was adorned with three rows of the
flower which the Greeks call [ .] 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.
