Matthew Henry on Exodus 28:24
The most considerable of the ornaments of the high priest was this breast-plate, a rich piece of cloth, curiously wrought with gold and purple, &c., two spans long and a span broad, so that, being doubled, it was a span square, v. 16. This was fastened to the ephod with wreathen chains of gold (v. 13, 14, 22, &c.) both at top and bottom, so that the breast-plate might not be loosed from the ephod, v. 28.
