‏ Judges 8:27

8:27  a An ephod was normally considered part of the priestly garments (Exod 28:6-30  b); one was also worn by Samuel and David (1 Sam 2:18  c; 2 Sam 6:14  d; 1 Chr 15:27  e). But here, as in Judg 17:5  f and 18:14-18  g, the ephod appears to have been some kind of gold image, which in turn became an object of idolatrous worship.
