Lev 8:8 And he put the breastplate upon him: also he
put in the breastplate the Urim and the Thummim.
*Urim - Ocular
brilliance (like the sunrise in the east)
*Thummim
-Perfection. Notice the capitalization!
These beautiful
ornaments set within the high priest's breast plate foretell of
Christ our High
Priest. He is the Bright and Morning Star and the Perfection of
Holiness, our sinless High Priest, tempted in all points like as we, yet
without sin. He is one Who is touched with the feelings of our infirmities. The
priest is one who acts toward God on behalf of man, as Christ does for us,
sitting on the right hand of the Father making intercession for the believer.
