The Bible

Jezekilj 26:14

¹⁴ I učiniću od tebe go kamen, bićeš mesto gde se razastiru mreže, nećeš se više sazidati; jer ja Gospod govorih, veli Gospod Gospod.

Commentary

Robes, mantles, and cloaks

‘Brother Juniper and the Beggar,’ by Spanish Baroque painter Bartolomé Esteban Murillo. Juniper, one of the original followers of St. Francis of Assissi, was renowned for his generosity. When told he could no longer give away his clothes, he instead simply told the needy, like the beggar in the painting, that he couldn’t give them his clothes, but wouldn’t stop them from taking them.

'Robes,' 'mantles,' and 'cloaks' signify general truths because they are garments of the whole body and cover everything.
