9“Then I washed you in water; yes, I thoroughly washed off your blood, and I anointed you with oil. 10I clothed you in embroidered cloth and gave you sandals of badger skin; I clothed you with fine linen and covered you with silk. 11I adorned you with ornaments, put bracelets on your wrists, and a chain on your neck. 12And I put a jewel in your nose, earrings in your ears, and a beautiful crown on your head. 13Thus you were adorned with gold and silver, and your clothing was of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth. You ate pastry of fine flour, honey, and oil. You were exceedingly beautiful, and succeeded to royalty. 14Your fame went out among the nations because of your beauty, for it was perfect through My splendor which I had bestowed on you,” says the Lord GOD.

This is a passage about Israel and On the sin of man.  This passage I am busting up to try to get more out of it.  It is a parable of the founding of Israel and it is a passage to see how the Lord picked the sinner and the death of sin,  In this part we are seeing what the Lord did in picking the person. 

He washed with Water…  God took the nation out of the danger of Epgt and took them to a promised land,  God took us out of the sin that we are in and he gives us a life for fin to use for him.  God Anointed with oil.  God gave us the Holy Spirit and sealed us for the salvation that Jesus gave on the cross.  God picked the Nation to be His when he anointed it and God gave himself to the people.  He clothed us in the righteousness of Jesus.  Before Jesus we were naked standing outside the hope of God,  I would not want to go before a holy God in my robes of sin.  We were dirty and yucky.  To go before God the sinless perfect one would kill us but in Jesus we have his righteousness.  God gave it to us freely and we did not earn it.  God made us his own and I see that in his giving us bracelets on his wrist and a Jewel in the nose,  He not only saved us but he gives us everything we need and want for that matter
