The answer is: White fine linen

Rev 19 vs 8

In the Book of Revelation, when it speaks of the "wife of the Lamb" arrayed in white fine linen, this imagery carries profound significance. Just like a dazzling bride doomed to capture everyone’s attention on her wedding day, the church is depicted as being pure, holy, and prepared for a divine union with Christ—metaphorically known in Christian parlance as the Lamb. The white linen symbolizes righteousness, purity, and virtue, akin to how brides commonly wear white to symbolize their commitment and innocence.

This connection to linens made from the best materials harkens back to life in the ancient Near East, where fine linen was rare and cherished. Interesting to note, the echoes of this imagery can be traced throughout various parts of the Bible. In Isaiah 61:10, there’s a beautiful note that speaks of garments of praise and righteousness, likening the relationship with God to that of a joyous wedding celebration.

Additionally, Revelation not only communicates about otherworldly realms but also strongly emphasizes social commentary on preparation and readiness for fellowship with the divine. The white linen invites readers to ponder what qualities characterize a life lived in goodwill and equality—qualities that foster unity among all individuals, rather than division. This beautiful metaphor unfolds layers of inspiration, leading us to aspire toward a more compassionate and inclusive community. How does one cultivate such “eye-catching” righteousness in today’s world? It’s conversation starters like this that make engaging with the scriptures so exciting!
