It appears in various contexts throughout the Scriptures, illustrating both physical and metaphorical meanings.<br><br>1. <b>Physical Stripping</b>: In the Old Testament, stripping often occurs in the context of warfare or judgment. For instance, after a battle, the victors would strip the defeated of their armor and garments as a sign of victory and humiliation. In <a href="/1_samuel/31-8.htm">1 Samuel 31:8</a>, after the death of Saul and his sons, the Philistines "stripped him and took his head and his armor" . This act of stripping not only served as a practical means of acquiring goods but also as a symbolic gesture of total defeat.<br><br>2. <b>Stripping as Judgment</b>: The prophets frequently use the imagery of stripping to convey God's judgment against Israel and other nations. In <a href="/isaiah/47-2.htm">Isaiah 47:2-3</a>, Babylon is personified as a woman who is stripped of her garments as a sign of her impending disgrace and downfall: "Take millstones and grind flour; remove your veil, strip off your skirt, bare your thigh, wade through the streams. Your nakedness will be uncovered, and your shame will be exposed" . This vivid imagery underscores the complete exposure and vulnerability that comes with divine judgment.<br><br>3. <b>Metaphorical Stripping</b>: In a metaphorical sense, stripping can refer to the removal of spiritual or moral coverings, revealing one's true nature. In the New Testament, the Apostle Paul uses the concept of stripping in a spiritual context. In <a href="/colossians/3-9.htm">Colossians 3:9-10</a>, he exhorts believers to "strip off the old self with its practices, and put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator" . Here, stripping off the old self signifies a renunciation of sinful behaviors and attitudes, while putting on the new self represents embracing a life transformed by Christ.<br><br>4. <b>Stripping of Christ</b>: One of the most poignant uses of the term is in the Passion narratives, where Jesus is stripped of His garments before His crucifixion. This act is recorded in <a href="/matthew/27-28.htm">Matthew 27:28</a>: "They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him" . The stripping of Jesus is a profound moment of humiliation and suffering, highlighting His willing submission to the Father's will and the depths of His sacrifice for humanity's redemption.<br><br>5. <b>Symbolism of Stripping in Worship</b>: In some instances, stripping is associated with worship and devotion. King David, in <a href="/2_samuel/6-14.htm">2 Samuel 6:14</a>, is described as dancing before the Lord with all his might, wearing a linen ephod. While not explicitly stated as stripping, his act of removing his royal garments to wear a simple ephod symbolizes humility and total devotion to God, setting aside earthly status in favor of spiritual worship.<br><br>In summary, the concept of stripping in the Bible serves as a powerful symbol of defeat, judgment, spiritual renewal, and devotion. It underscores themes of vulnerability, transformation, and the ultimate triumph of God's purposes.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
