Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands.
Their webs shall not become garments - like the "fig-leaves" wherewith Adam and Eve vainly tried to cover their shame, as contrasted with the 'coats of skins' which the Lord God made to clothe them with (Isaiah 64:6; Romans 13:14; Galatians 3:27; Philippians 3:9). The artificial, self-deceiving sophisms of human philosophy are meant (1 Timothy 6:5; 2 Timothy 2:16; 2 Timothy 2:23).
