2. The exchange of outer garments
Scripture says that He has given us His divine nature - II Peter 1:3-4.
To the Hebrew, a person’s robe represents the person. By taking off my robe and giving it to you, I’m symbolically saying, “I’m giving you all myself. My total being and my life, I pledge to you.” And then you would do the same to me.
Also read Colossians 3:8-10; 12-14 for more information on His garments that are given to us, and that we need to reach for and put on ourselves!
Cindy what an interesting blog.
ReplyDeleteI loved learning about the garment and I see that there is so much here to learn.

I am loving this Covenant series. I am reminded how they cast lots over Jesus' garments at the foot of the cross.
