3:59PM - Readings for Holy Week #7: Holy Saturday
Who is this one coming from Edom,
In crimson garments from Bozrah?
This one splendid in his clothing,
Stooping in the greatness of his strength?
"It is I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save."
Why is your clothing red,
And your garments like those of one who treads in the winepress?
"I have trodden the winepress alone,
And from the peoples there was no man with me.
I trod them in my anger,
And trampled them in my rage.
Their juice spattered on my garments,
And stained all my clothing."
– Isaiah 63:1-3
