Context of Exodus 39:30
28the turban of fine linen, the headwear, the linen undergarments of finely twisted linen, 29along with the tunic of checkered work, in blue, purple and scarlet, the work of a color weaver, as Adonai commanded Moses. Finally they made the plate of the holy coronet from pure gold, and wrote an inscription on it, like the engraving of a signet seal: HOLY TO Adonai. 31They tied to it a blue thread, to fasten onto the turban above, as Adonai commanded Moses. 32So all the work of the Tabernacle, the Tent of Meeting, was finished. Bnei-Yisrael did everything according to what Adonai had commanded Moses—they did it just so.
