Numbers 4:12

“And they shall take all the instruments of ministry, wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, etc.] The garments in which the priests, ministered in the sanctuary, which were laid up in proper places, and which they only wore when in service: and put [them] in a cloth of blue, and cover them with a covering of badgers’ skins; all wrapped up in one bundle: and shall put [them] on a bar; the same sort of carriage on which the candlestick and its vessels were borne, (see Gill on “<040410>Numbers 4:10”).”

“instruments of ministry--the official dress of the priests (Exo 31:10).”

“The instruments of ministry - The sacred garments used by the priests in their holy ministrations. Cover them - All these coverings were designed, For safety, that these holy things might not be filled by rain, or tarnished by the sun. For decency, most of them had a cloth of blue, or purple, or scarlet over them; the ark, a cloth wholly of blue, perhaps an emblem of the azure skies, which are spread between us and the Majesty on high; For concealment. It was a fit sign of the darkness of that dispensation. The holy things were then covered. But Christ hath now destroyed the face of the covering. Numbers 4:13”
