Further, By these words; Thou hast stripped the naked of their Clothing] We may understand not clothing only, but all the necessaries of this life, any thing which is of such concernment to our lives as our Clothes are; for as bread in Scripture is put for all the necessaries of this life; So is Clothing. Esa. 3.6. When a man shall take hold of his Brother, saying; Thou ⟨p. 60⟩hast Clothing; Be thou Ruler over us, &c. Thou hast clothing, that is, thou hast goods, thou hast an Estate, thou canst make provision for us; there Clothing is put for all outward Conveniences, as in other Scriptures Bread is. So that according to the extent of this interpretation, Thou hast stripped the naked of their Clothing, takes in all sorts of bodily grievances put upon the poor.
Further, By these words; Thou hast stript the naked of their Cloathing] Wee may understand not cloathing onely, but all the necessaries of this life, any thing which is of such concernment to our lives as our Cloaths are; for as bread in Scripture is put for all the necessaries of this life; So is Cloathing. Esa. 3.6. When a man shall take hold of his Brother, saying; Thou ⟨p. 60⟩hast Cloathing; Be thou Ruler over us, &c. Thou hast cloathing, that is, thou hast goods, thou hast an Estate, thou canst make provision for us; there Cloathing is put for all outward Conveniencies, as in other Scriptures Bread is. So that according to the extent of this interpretation, Thou hast stript the naked of their Cloathing, takes in all sorts of bodily grievances put upon the poore.
