Berean Strong's Lexicon Ephod: Ephod Original Word: אֵפוֹד Part of Speech: Proper Name Masculine Transliteration: Ephod Pronunciation: ay-fode' Phonetic Spelling: (ay-fode') Definition: Ephod Meaning: Ephod Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for the Hebrew ephod, as it is a uniquely Hebrew concept related to the Israelite priesthood. However, the Greek term "στολή" (stolē) can refer to a robe or garment, which may be used in contexts discussing priestly attire. Usage: The ephod is a sacred vestment worn by the high priest in ancient Israel, as well as by other priests and certain individuals. It is often associated with worship and the seeking of divine guidance. The ephod was an essential part of the priestly garments, symbolizing the priest's role as a mediator between God and the people. Cultural and Historical Background: In the context of ancient Israel, the ephod was a significant religious garment, intricately designed and made of fine materials. It was part of the high priest's attire, described in detail in Exodus 28:6-14. The ephod was made of gold, blue, purple, and scarlet yarn, and fine linen, and it included two onyx stones on the shoulders, engraved with the names of the tribes of Israel. The ephod was also associated with the Urim and Thummim, tools used for divination and seeking God's will. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origin from the same as ephod Definition an Isr.
