Context of Exodus 39:2

1Next they made woven garments of blue, purple and scarlet, for ministering in the holy place. They made the holy garments for Aaron, as Adonai commanded Moses. He made the ephod of gold, blue, purple, scarlet and finely twisted linen. 3They hammered the gold into thin plates, and cut it into threads, to work it in with the blue, purple and scarlet, within the fine linen, the work of a skillful craftsman. 4Then they made shoulder pieces for it, joined together at the two ends.
