Leviticus 8:13

Aaron's sons are clothed with tunics, sashes, and caps. The tunics and sashes are not described; whether they were less elaborate than those of the high priest does not appear, but is probable. The caps (headtiresR.V., bonnetsA.V.) were of fine linen (Exodus 39:28), and the Heb. word is used only of the head-gear of the ordinary priests. The description of Josephus (Ant.iii. 7. 3) is not very clear. See on Leviticus 8:9, and the note on Exodus 28:40.
