The Breastplate of Judgement described in the Old Testament is one of the most fascinating artifacts found in all of scripture. I find it as compelling as The Ark of the Covenant, Liahona, Staff of Aaron, The Stone Tablets with the 10 commandments, the Urim & Thummim and other Seer Stones.
The Breastplate of Judgement was part of the clothing that would be worn by the temple high priest from the time of Moses and Aaron all the way down until it is apparently lost or no longer discusses after the Babylonian invasion in 587 BC.
Aaron is the first high priest with his Sons being priests in the temple as well.
The High Priest was the one who would wear the special clothing. Only once a year on the day of atonement, also known as Yom Kippur, the High Priest could enter the Holy of Holies and make an offering for the sins of all the children of Israel.

![Mark of the Beast
There is probably not a more provocative topic to cover than the Mark of the Beast. It has been requested more than any other topic. But it is really different than nearly any other topic. If you take something like the temple in Jerusalem or the 2 witnesses or nearly any other 2nd coming or last days topic and you can find there are many references in scripture. There are many prophets and apostles that have talked about it. And from those sources we can better understand those topics. This is not such a topic.
There are only a few places in scripture that even mention it and all of them are part of John the Revelators Apocalyptic writings in the book of Revelation which can be difficult to wade between what is symbolic and what is real. Apostles and Prophets havent discussed it much in public, recorded forums. The guide to the scriptures, topical guide and bible dictionary are silent. And the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day saints has no official position on what it is. So this leaves us with a few verses and the surrounding context of the book of Revelation to make any sense this subject other than a few student manuals Ill reference later. In fact, if you want a formula on figuring out the odds of misunderstanding the interpretation of a prophesy, [click] you can take the number of references to that specific thing found in scripture and divide it by the number of Google results you get on that same topic. Now thats a little facetious but you get my point. So what does scripture say about the Mark of the Beast?
