a plate of pure gold:
The word tzitz, which we translate a plate, properly signifies a flower. It is rendered by the LXX πεταλον, a leaf, and is called nezer, a crown in "And thou shalt putª ° the mitreª upon¹ his head,ª and putª °¹ the holyª crownª upon¹ the mitre.ª" {Exd 29:6} and διαδημα, a diadem, by the author of the book of Wisdom, 28:24. Josephus says that it was adorned with three rows of the flower which the Greeks call κυανος. It was two fingers broad, of a circular form, suited to the shape of the head, and so long that it reached from ear to ear, and was fastened upon a blue lace or ribband, which was tied behind the head; and as the plate reached only half round the head, the remaining part of the ribband was highly ornamented with artificial flowers.

grave upon it:
"And thou shalt takeª °¹ twoª onyxª stones,ª and graveª ° on¹ them the namesª of the childrenª of Israel:ª" {Exd 28:9} + "With the workª of an engraverª in stone,ª [like] the engravingsª of a signet,ª shalt thou engraveª °¹ the twoª stonesª with¹ the namesª of the childrenª of Israel:ª thou shalt makeª ° them to be setª ° in ouchesª of gold.ª" {Exd 28:11}
