• Now here the force is the greater, because till after the deluge no moving thing that lived was given to be food for man. “Thou shalt eat the herb of the field” Adam had just heard once more. (“Genesis 3:20-21” by W. Kelly)
• There is a truth most impressively taught, that He Who clothed them made for each of them coats which had their necessary origin in skins of animals slain for the purpose. That solemn word, death, was now brought before them as a fact for the first time. Man fallen may vainly essay to hide his shame by some device of nature; Jehovah Elohim bases the clothing He provides on death, the penalty of sin.

• Clothed or unclothed, present in the body or absent from it, the believer is never naked; he has on always the best robe. (“Genesis 3:20-21” by W. Kelly)
