Exodus 30:19 (c) Perhaps this figure indicates that our work and our walk must be clean as we enter into GOD's service. (See Exodus 30:21; Exodus 40:31).

Psalm 58:10 (b) This unusual picture describes the complete victory that GOD's people will eventually have over all their enemies. It may be that this refers definitely to the time when Israel will be the head of the nations, having conquered and subdued all her enemies.

Song of Solomon 5:3 (c) In this passage we may see the utter devotion of the child of GOD to his Lord. He has removed his coat for whole-hearted work in the harvest field, and he has cleansed his feet from evil ways that he may walk humbly and softly with GOD. Certainly no other walk would be desirable nor permissible between these two lovers.

John 13:5-14 (b) By this service we are to learn that the Lord JESUS took the humble place, and so should we. He served the disciples in lowliness of mind, heart and position, and so we should serve each other. He indicated by this service that He would cleanse our ways for us, that we might walk in a clean path. He also assured Peter that He would continue this service from Heaven and that we also should help to encourage each other in paths of godliness. (See also Psalm 119:9; Ephesians 5:26; 1 Timothy 5:10).
