• The hem of our High Priest’s garment is ourselves, we who can make no pretense to the title of Christian if we do not render testimony to Christ and bear fruit for God in the power of the Holy Spirit. (“Hiram and the Court: 1 Kings 7:13-51” by H.L. Rossier)
• It is like the precious oil that, at the consecration of Aaron, was poured upon his head and flowed to the skirts of his garment, so that the whole man came under the sanctifying effect of the oil (Ex. 29:7; Lev. 8:12). In like manner, when brethren dwell together in unity there is nothing to hinder the full expression of the fruits of the Spirit, of whom the oil is a type, in all their preciousness and fragrance. The Church should enjoy this blessedness now (Eph. 4:3): Israel will not enjoy it “until,” as Isaiah says, “the Spirit be poured upon us from on high” (Isa. 32:15-18). To this time the psalm looks on. (“Psalms 133” by H. Smith)
