Coat of many colors?

The coat of many (hands or widths) would indicate that it was layered and more luxurious.
The intent for us is that we are covered as God's children who He loves.
The covering may be seen as Lord Jesus' covering sacrifice for us, e.g. his blood covers our sins.
Even the covering of the full armor of God that protects us along our journey of faith.
Good subject and worth exploring.

Very much agreed Bob! And the reason we want to be covered is because..
Revelation 3:17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
indianabob:
Yes Alex, poor and blind and naked and in my case wrinkled.
And who wants to see a naked wrinkled old man. covering is required and much appreciated.
Smiling Bob

Haha. Oh bob, you are so silly! :P
This whole thread brings to mind one of my most favorite versus of scripture and it has to do with being clothed!
Zechariah 3: 3-4 "Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment." (<-- Two of my favorite versus right thur! )
Zechariah 3: 7 "Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by."
Revelation 3:21 "To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne."
Obadiah 1:21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD's.
1 Corinthians 6:2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world?
Ah... the day the Lord removes these filthy stinky garments... The day I finally have adequate covering for my nakedness and shame. What a day it will be! Those royal colors sure would be a nice bonus ;) haha xD

Hi Eugene,
As Alex mentioned, it's no problem asking a question that has been discussed before. There is a lot of material on this website and it is inevitable that a question will be repeated. I believe it's a good "refresher" lesson for all of us when certain subjects are brought back up. :)
Here is a scripture from Isaiah that seems to fit in nicely with the subject of "coat of many colors."
Isaiah 61:10 - "I will greatly rejoice in Yahweh. My soul shall exult in my God, for He had clothed me with the garments of salvation, with a robe of righteousness hath he enwrapt me..." (REB)

I had a dream when I was little. I was around 8 years old when it happened. I saw an angel, spiritual guide or one of the overcomers. she appeared female to me. we had an conversation. There's no fear. You felt drawn to return home. I was almost home. It was right there. There's so much love and concern. There's no judgement no fear. Just unconditional love and concern. She had a conversation with me. I remember the important details of that conversation, It's a bit hazy but important parts struck. I also saw earth and felt the sufferings. It was all compressed together. We were all connected. I returned back to earth to help. I also remember her wearing a coat of many colors. It was beautiful. There's colors you haven't even seen. They were like pure colors. very pure colors, like nothing you've seen here. I was in awe of it. I couldn't explain it. It is an honor to wear one. But then again, it could just be a dream. It seems so vivid that I could never forget it.
