Exodus 28:35

AaronHoly Place

33 Make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet yarn all the way around the lower hem, with gold bells between them,

34 alternating the gold bells and pomegranates around the lower hem of the robe.

Aaron must wear the robe whenever he ministers, and its sound will be heard when he enters or exits the sanctuary before the LORD, so that he will not die.

36 You are to make a plate of pure gold and engrave on it as on a seal: HOLY TO THE LORD.

37 Fasten to it a blue cord to mount it on the turban; it shall be on the front of the turban.

This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
