Exodus 19:14
Compare all
12 You shall set bounds for the people all around, saying, ‘Take heed to yourselves that you do not go up to the mountain or touch its base. aWhoever touches the mountain shall surely be put to death.  
13 Not a hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with an arrow; whether man or beast, he shall not live.’ When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come near the mountain.”
14 So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.
15 And he said to the people, “Be ready for the third day; ado not come near your wives.”  
16 Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were athunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp btrembled.

Exodus 19:14

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

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.
