Ezekiel 16:11-13

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Ezekiel 16:11-13. I decked thee also with ornaments, and I put bracelets upon thy hands, and a chain on thy neck. And I put a jewel on thy forehead, and earrings in thine ears, and a beautiful crown upon thine head. Thus wast thou decked with gold and silver; and thy raiment was of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work;

The work of the Lord Jesus and the work of the Holy Spirit have made marvelously glorious "broidered work" for our spiritual adornment. Well does good Dr. Watts sing,-"

How far the heavenly robe exceeds,

What earthly princes wear!

These ornaments, how bright they shine!

How white the garments are!

Strangely, my soul, art thou array’d By the great Sacred Three!

In sweetest harmony of praise Let all thy powers agree."
