The Breastpiece: There were twelve stones, one for each of the names of the sons of Israel, each engraved like a seal with the name of one of the twelve tribes.
They made two gold rings and attached them to the other two corners of the breastpiece on the inside edge next to the ephod. Two more gold rings and attached them to the bottom of the shoulder pieces on the front of the ephod.
They tied the rings of the breastpiece to the rings of the ephod with blue cord, connecting it to the waistband so that the breastpiece would not swing out from the ephod.
The Breastpiece memory the twelve tribes of Israel, the people of God.
How?
God remembers us and calls us by our name.
