Exodus 28:2
King James Version
2 And thou shalt make holy garments
for Aaron thy brother
for glory and for beauty.
GOD commanded Moses to make holy garments for Aaron, the priest, who is to serve the LORD.
Aaron is the brother of Moses, and Miriam.
What does it have to do with governments of today?
You will see how GOD governs.
His organization, His love for beauty.
As well as purity, perfection, and precision.
Everything is symbolic, as well as spiritual.
Let SPIRIT and Scripture show us.
For this is connected with the 12 tribes of Israel.
Exodus 28:3
King James Version
3 And thou shalt speak unto all that are wise hearted,
whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom,
that they may make Aaron's garments
to consecrate him,
that he may minister unto me
in the priest's office.
Exodus 28:4
King James Version
4 And these are the garments
which they shall make;
a breastplate,
and an ephod,
and a robe,
and a broidered coat,
a mitre,
and a girdle:
and they shall make holy garments
for Aaron thy brother,
and his sons,
that he may minister unto me
in the priest's office.

an emerald, a sapphire, and a diamond.
19 And the third row

they shall be set in gold in their inclosings.

For SPIRIT is leading me to discover something.
Which pertains to Bible prophecy, and the end times.
All because of a "WOLF dream" I had seven days ago.
Allow me to follow the clues, and leads given by SPIRIT.
I'm taking it a step at a time, making sure I get it right.
Through another post, regarding the "URIM and THUMMIM".
