Holiness, Beauty Of
Holiness, Beauty Of
is a phrase occurring several times in the English Bible (always as a translation of the Heb. hadrath’ ko’desh, , ornament of sanctity, 1Ch 15:29; 2Ch 20:21; Psa 29:2; Psa 116:9; in the plur. of the cognate term , hadda, Psa 110:3), which simply denotes splendid garments, such as are worn on festive occasions, i.q. “holiday suit,” not necessarily the sacred priestly vestments, since it is usually, if not exclusively, applied to nonsacerdotal persons.
