ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Priestly robe (Judaism)

Okay kiddo, so you know how sometimes people wear special clothes for special occasions, like a princess wearing a fancy dress to a fancy ball? Well, in Judaism, priests wear special clothes when they do their special job of serving God in the temple.

One of these special clothes is called the priestly robe. It's made out of really nice materials like linen and wool, and it covers the priest's whole body from his neck to his ankles.

The robe has a special design with colors like blue, purple, and red. It also has little golden bells and pomegranates hanging from the bottom hem.

This robe is very important because it shows that the priest is set apart for his special job of serving God. It's also a reminder of how God helped the Jewish people when they were wandering in the desert and gave Moses instructions on how to make the priestly clothes.

So there you have it, kiddo! The priestly robe is just a special piece of clothing that priests wear when they serve God in the temple. It's a reminder of the Jewish people's history and tradition, and it shows that the priest is set apart for a special job.
