Antiq.)
A part of the sacerdotal habit among Jews, being a covering
for the back and breast, held together on the shoulders by
two clasps or brooches of onyx stones set in gold, and
fastened by a girdle of the same stuff as the ephod. The
ephod for the priests was of plain linen; that for the high
priest was richly embroidered in colors. The breastplate of
the high priest was worn upon the ephod in front. --Exodus
xxviii. 6-12.
