(27) The rulers brought onyx stones, and stones to be set.—The “rulers” here intended are probably the “princes of the tribes” of Israel (Num_1:16; Num_3:3; Num_3:5, &c.). The twelve stones required for the breastplate would naturally be contributed by the twelve chiefs of the tribes whose names they were to bear (Exo_28:21). The two onyx stones for the ephod (Exo_28:9-12), may have been the further gift of two of the number, who happened to possess stones of the large size needed.
