Brown-Driver-Briggs מִגְבָּעוֺת noun feminine plural head-gear, turban, of common priest (conical? compare Di Exodus 28:40), Exodus 28:40 Leviticus 8:13; מִגְבָּעֹת Exodus 29:9; Exodus 39:28 (׳מַּאֲרֵי הַמּ). Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root גָּבַע (gaba'), meaning "to be high" or "to be elevated."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for מִגְבָּעָה in the Septuagint or the New Testament, as the specific priestly garments of the Old Testament do not have a direct counterpart in the Greek texts. However, the concept of priestly attire and head coverings can be related to general terms for garments or head coverings in Greek, such as περιβόλαιον (peribolaion) for a covering or veil. Usage: The term מִגְבָּעָה is used in the context of the priestly garments described in the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Exodus and Leviticus. It denotes a specific type of cap worn by the priests as part of their ceremonial attire. Context: The Hebrew term מִגְבָּעָה (migba'ah) appears in the context of the priestly garments as described in the Pentateuch. This cap was part of the sacred attire worn by the priests during their service in the Tabernacle and later in the Temple. The מִגְבָּעָה is mentioned in Exodus 28:40, where it is listed among the garments made for Aaron's sons: "Make tunics, sashes, and headbands for Aaron’s sons, to give them glory and splendor." (BSB). The cap served not only as a functional piece of clothing but also as a symbol of the priestly office and the sanctity required of those who ministered before the LORD. The design and material of the מִגְבָּעָה, like other priestly garments, were specified by divine command, emphasizing the importance of holiness and order in worship. The מִגְבָּעָה is distinct from the turban (מִצְנֶפֶת, mitznefet) worn by the high priest, indicating a hierarchy and differentiation in the priestly roles.
