Leviticus 8:9
"And he put the mitre upon his head; also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the golden plate, the holy crown; as the LORD commanded Moses."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

And he put the mitre upon his head,.... Which was made of fine linen, and was a wrap of that of a considerable length about his head, Exo 28:39 . also upon the mitre, even upon his forefront, did he put the

golden plate; which was put upon the forehead of the high priest, reaching from ear to ear, and was fastened to the mitre with a blue lace, and had on it this inscription, "holiness to the Lord": Exo 28:36 and is here therefore called the holy crown: denoting both the sanctity and the dignity of the high priest, and typical of Christ, who is holiness itself, and to his people, and is now crowned with glory and honour, being a priest upon the throne: hence the Jews (u) speak of the crown of the law, and of the crown of the kingdom, and of the crown of the priesthood: and this, as all the rest, was done as the Lord commanded Moses; all these were made according to the divine order, and were put on in the manner and form he directed him; of the mystery of the mitre and the crown; see Gill on Exo 28:39 , Exo 28:36 , Exo 28:37 . (u) Pirke Abot, c. 4. sect. 13.
