Wedding garment

Lady Godiva, what did she really take off and did she put on the wedding garments? Are your wedding garments woven with righteousness and the love of Christ which is the sacrifice of fervent charity or are your garments woven with the warp and weft of the pleasures of unrighteousness and the covetous practices of the world which is idolatry[1]? Also see Matthew 22.

Wedding garments

The Hebrew word for garment which is beged[2] is also the Hebrew word for treachery[3].

"And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few [are] chosen." Matthew 22:11 -14

In eastern customes the wedding clothes or garment was often provided by the host but had to be put on by the guest.


Whose garments

What are the garments of God and of treachery against God and His Way?

In Isaiah 64:6... we see, "But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away."

Augustine of Hippo said the garment was symbolizing charity but Martin Luther suggested that the garment represented Christ.

But what would that look like to put on Christ?

John Calvin says it is faith and good works because James repeatedly emphasized that faith without works is dead.[4]

"As to the wedding garment, is it faith, or is it a holy life?

This is a useless controversy; for faith cannot be separated from good works, nor do good works proceed from any other source than from faith. Christ intended only to state that the Lord calls us on the express condition of our being renewed by the Spirit ... and that, in order to our remaining permanently in his house, we must put off the old man with his pollutions ... and lead a new life." [5]

Other verses in the Old Testament is related to this one of Matthew.

In Isaiah 64:6 the condition of our garments is the result of the fact that our righteousness is actually iniquity:

"But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away. 7 And there is none that calleth upon thy name, that stirreth up himself to take hold of thee: for thou hast hid thy face from us, and hast consumed us, because of our iniquities."

Many say they call upon the name of the Lord but they do not make Him Lord because they do not seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness.

When they pray for their daily bread they do not pray to their Father in heaven but to the conscripted fathers of rhe earth. They seek the wages of unrighteousness that are provided through the covetous practices which Paul says is idolatry[1] and therefore iniquity.

The masses may want to deny the truth of this because they have become comfortable with extortion. They are under a Strong delusion because of their blind guides.[6]

But if they were to repent of the covetous ways of the world and come back to the Father's house of faith, hope, and charity He will forgive their iniquity.

Isaiah 64:8  But now, O LORD, thou art our father; we are the clay(הַחֹ֙מֶר֙)[7], and thou our potter(יֹצְרֵ֔נוּ)[8]; and we all are the work of thy hand. 9  Be not wroth very sore, O LORD, neither remember iniquity for ever: behold, see, we beseech[9] thee, we are all thy people."

Time is passing and it is time to:

"Awake, awake; put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into thee the uncircumcised and the unclean. 2 Shake thyself from the dust; arise, [and] sit down, O Jerusalem: loose thyself(הִֽתְפַּתְּחִי֙)[10] from the bands of thy neck, O captive daughter of Zion. 3 For thus saith the LORD, Ye have sold yourselves for nought; and ye shall be redeemed[11] without money[12]. 4 For thus saith the Lord GOD, My people went down aforetime into Egypt to sojourn there; and the Assyrian oppressed[13] them without cause[14]. 5 Now therefore, what have I here, saith the LORD, that my people is taken away for nought? they that rule over them make them to howl, saith the LORD; and my name continually every day [is] blasphemed " Isaiah 52

The people needed to wake up and put on the beautiful garments. They needed to loose themselves by living by righteousness and not iniquity because that is the keys of the Kingdom. They were not wearing the righteousness of God because they sold themselves for the wages of unrighteousness through covetous practices and received from those men who call themselves benefactors but who rule over them and have gone back into the bondage of Egypt and followed the way of Assyria. Instead of living by the perfect law of liberty through faith, hope and charity and a daily ministration of pure Religion they lived by the covetous practices of force, fear, and fealty. Many thought they were doing great things in His name saying LORD, LORD but in fact were not doers of the word but rather workers of iniquity blaspheming his name in vanity.


Unmooring the purpose of the altars, priests and the Levites from their purpose and function in a free society is first the product of vanity which is the absence of the virtue of humility. A nation of priests and kings is where the people are not slothful in their responsibility to give and forgive in the care of their neighbor through a social safety net of charity and attention to the weightier matters.
 : Why are the ministers of a nation considered naked and need the people to sew them "Breeches" and what are the cloths of service described in Exodus 28 and Exodus 29 based on the intent of Moses in the scriptures?

Garments

From fig leafs to animal skins man has attempted to cover his nakedness. Like the breeches of the levites these words are often metaphors with deeper meanings.

Exodus 29:21 "And thou shalt take of the blood that is upon the altar, and of the anointing oil, and sprinkle it upon Aaron, and upon his garments, and upon his sons, and upon the garments of his sons with him: and he shall be hallowed, and his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him."[2]

Why is the Hebrew word for garment[2] also the word for treachery?[3]

There is another word for garment sometimes which is (שִׂמְלָה‎) simlah[15] which is related to something that gives a covering and can be more symbolic than just cloth.[16]
