Role in This Section

- Exodus 39:22–31
Read Exodus 39:24 with 39:22–31. Reading 39:24 as “And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen” keeps the verse tied to the before-and-after logic of “Robe, Tunics, Headwear, and Plate Are Made”. The whole unit shows: The robe with reinforced opening, bells and pomegranates, woven tunics, linen undergarments, sash, and holy crown complete the garments.
Why It Needs Context
Reading 39:24 as “And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen” keeps the verse tied to the before-and-after logic of “Robe, Tunics, Headwear, and Plate Are Made”. Its force depends on 39:22–31; detached from “Robe, Tunics, Headwear, and Plate Are Made,” the words “And they made upon the hems of the robe pomegranates of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and twined linen” could be mistaken for a complete command, promise, judgment, explanation, or doctrine.
