4 He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.


Commentarius in hunc versum  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 4. Also such purification is effected by truths from good, that is, by the truths of the exterior natural; by the doctrine of the conjunction of truth with good externally; by the common bond conjoining truths with good internally; and by the intelligence of truth inmostly; for by these man is made pure and holy when he does the work of repentance by the application of external truths to life.
