Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Greek equivalent for "migbaoth," the concept of priestly garments can be related to Greek terms such as "στολή" (stolē, G4749), meaning "robe" or "garment," used in the context of religious or ceremonial attire.

Usage: The term "migbaoth" refers to a specific type of head covering or turban worn by priests in ancient Israel. It is used in the context of priestly garments, signifying a part of the sacred attire designated for those serving in the Tabernacle or Temple. The migbaoth were part of the holy garments that set the priests apart for their service to God.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, clothing held significant cultural and religious meaning. The priestly garments, including the migbaoth, were not merely functional but symbolic of purity, holiness, and the distinct role of the priesthood. The migbaoth were made according to specific instructions given by God to Moses, as recorded in the Torah. These garments were crafted with fine materials, reflecting the sacred duties of the priests and their consecration to God.
