I have only named these things, without farther consideration of them; partly, because § 5 they have been enquired into, and controverted by many already; and partly, because I cannot my self come unto any certainty about sundry things relating unto them. The colours which we render blue, purple and scarlet, with the substance of that which we after translate fine linen, cannot be clearly manifested what they were. The stones of the Breast-plate and Ephod, for the most part are unknown, and their names are applied only by conjecture, unto such whose names are known to us. Concerning these things, the Jews themselves are at a loss, and give us only various rumours and surmises; and I shall not add to the heap of conjectures which have already been cast into this treasury.
