Context of Exodus 39:5

3They hammered the gold into thin sheets and cut them up. They twisted the gold into threads, which they creatively worked into each strand of the violet, purple, and bright red yarn, and throughout the fine linen. 4They made two shoulder straps attached at the ⌞top⌟ corners so that the ephod could be fastened. They made the belt that is attached to the ephod out of the same fabric. They followed the Lord’s instructions to Moses. 6They mounted the onyx stones in gold settings, and engraved on them the names of the sons of Israel. 7Then they fastened them on the shoulder straps of the ephod as a reminder of who the Israelites are. They followed the Lord’s instructions to Moses.
