set´ing ( מלּאה , millu'āh , literally, "a filling"): The word is used in the description of the manufacture of the breastplate of judgment ( Exodus 28:17 ). The instruction runs: "Thou shalt set in it settings of stones," namely, four rows of precious stones. The same word is rendered "inclosings" in Exodus 28:20 , and in Exodus 39:13 the King James Version.
