Genesis 3:21 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed them.

Romans 13:14. Were not these the skins of beasts slaughtered for sacrifice? They could not be for food, for at this time no animal food was made use of. And if it were so, how beautiful is it to trace sacrifices immediately after the fall. And let the Reader further remark, that not only was the blood of Jesus hereby set forth in type and figure, as the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world: but also the righteousness of Jesus, as a covering and a garment of salvation sweetly shadowed forth also. And Reader! do not overlook. that other interesting part of the verse: the Lord God made Adam and his wife the covering. He that provides the righteousness must put it on also. Romans 13:14.
