As white as snow 눈처럼 하얗게 (이사야 1:18)

그림설명: Cleansed from unrighteousness
그림 저작권: V. Gilbert and Arlisle F. Beers

성경구절

“Come now, let us reason together,” says the Lord. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” (Isaiah 1:18) “Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.” (Psalm 51:7) “여호와께서 말씀하시되 오라 우리가 서로 변론하자 너희의 죄가 주홍 같을지라도 눈과 같이 희어질 것이요 진홍 같이 붉을 지라도 양털 같이 희게 되리라.” (이사야 1:18) “우슬초로 나를 정결하게 하소서 내가 정하리이다 나의 죄를 씻어 주소서 내가 눈보다 희리이다.”(시편 51:7)

만약 어떤 것이나 어떤 사람이 눈과 같이 하얗다면, 그들은 완벽하고 완전히 오염되지 않고 정직하다는 뜻입니다.

기원과 적용

하얀색은 순결함과 같은 뜻을 가졌습니다. 성경에서 하얀색은 죄로부터 떠남을 상징하는 색입니다. 사람이 한번 하나님과의 관계를 화해하면, 그들의 죄는 용서함을 받고, 그들은 눈처럼 하얗게 됩니다.
