Présentation de l'éditeur

Esther viii. 15. The father said unto his servants, Bring forth the best robe and put it on him. Luke xv, 22. The oriental custom of expressing changed circumstances by change of raiment must interpret for us the full meaning of the garment of praise. The metaphor runs through the Bible, and becomes especially prominent in the A pocalypse. Raiment meant something in those days. Because I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, I will clothe thee with change of raiment. The scribes desired long robes, only because such robes were the outward symbol of the character they sought to assume before the people.
