Imamat 8:13

8:13 Moses also brought forward Aaron’s sons, clothed them with tunics, wrapped sashes around them, ¹  and wrapped headbands on them ²  just as the Lord had commanded Moses.

[8:13]  ¹ tc The MT has here “sash” (singular), but the context is clearly plural and Smr has it in the plural.

[8:13]  tn Heb “girded them with sashes” (so NAB, NASB); NRSV “fastened sashes around them.”

[8:13]  ² tn Heb “wrapped headdresses to them”; cf. KJV “bonnets”; NASB, TEV “caps”; NIV, NCV “headbands”; NAB, NLT “turbans.”

[8:13]  sn Notice that the priestly garments of Aaron’s sons are quite limited compared to those of Aaron himself, the high priest (cf. vv. 7-9 above). The terms for “tunic” and “sash” are the same but not the headgear (cf. Exod 28:40; 29:8-9; 39:27-29).
