Context of Leviticus 8:7

5Moses said to the congregation, “This is what Adonai has commanded to be done.” 6Moses brought Aaron and his sons and washed them with water. He put the tunic on Aaron, tied the sash on him, clothed him with the robe, put the ephod on him, and tied the skillfully decorated sash of the ephod around him and fastened it on him. 8He then placed the breastplate on Aaron, and inside the breastplate he put the Urim and the Thummim. 9He set the turban on his head, and on front of the turban he set the golden plate, the holy crown, just as Adonai commanded Moses.
