How do we know the significance of the Urim and Thummim?

Answered in 1 source

The significance of the Urim and Thummim is revealed through their role in the high priest's duties and the spiritual truths they foreshadow about Christ.

The significance of the Urim and Thummim lies not only in their physical presence but also in what they represent. They are emblematic of Christ, our great High Priest, who embodies both light and perfection. When the high priest used the Urim and Thummim, it signified direct communication with God, revealing divine judgments to the people. The spiritual significance is further enhanced by their connection to Christ, who is identified as the true light and the embodiment of perfection. Thus, understanding the Urim and Thummim requires recognizing their typological role in expressing God's revelation through Christ and His priestly function.
