Exodus 19:14-16
Excerpted from: The Appointed Weeks of Pentecost

So, there was a time of sanctification, and then God appeared on the third day and thundered the Ten Commandments.

Tradition suggests that Pentecost was when God gave the law. However, there is a difficulty to be aware of. As we just read, it was on the second day of sanctification that the whole nation washed their clothes. It was National Laundry Day. But if the third day was Pentecost, then Laundry Day would have been on the Sabbath, which is not something God would have commanded. Washing clothes is work for a preparation day.

However, if we move the starting point back one day and put Laundry Day on the preparation day, then the law would have been given on the Sabbath. But not just any Sabbath; the 7^th Sabbath, the final day of the perfect perfection of time.

Exodus 19:14
Excerpted from: The Faith Once Delivered

Moses could not have the people put on their best clothes because they only had the clothes they were wearing. Their clothes and shoes never wore out for forty years. God did have them wash their clothes. God also told the high priest, if you remember, what was acceptable clothing to wear in the temple when he came before Him.

Exodus 19:14
Excerpted from: The Purpose of the Church

Does that make a relationship with Ephesians 5, “the washing of the water by the word”? What did they have to do? They had to wash their clothes. What is clothes the symbol of? It is a symbol of righteousness. And what does the bride in the New Covenant prepare herself for? We will see it in just a little bit.
