Israel’s identity and appeal is taken away. 

Ezekiel 23:26-27

“They shall also strip you of your clothes and take away your beautiful jewelry. ‘Thus I will make you cease your lewdness and your harlotry brought from the land of Egypt, so that you will not lift your eyes to them, nor remember Egypt anymore.’” Ezekiel 23:26-27

The Israelites were humiliated, downgraded, and disrespected by their conquerors. The Israelites were so offended and embarrassed by what had happened to them that they would not even make eye contact with their conquerors and were totally disgusted by the memories they held of Egypt. The Babylonians stripped them of their clothing and took away their beautiful jewelry. This was God’s way of causing them to cease their lewdness and harlotry brought from the land of Egypt.

Clothing covers our nakedness and is part of revealing who we are or who we want to be. Jewelry includes adornments to enhance appearances. For example, the Jewish culture and heritage are the clothing of the Jewish people, and the Jewelry would be their Holy sites, such as the Temple Mount, the site of the temple that king Solomon built. The clothing and jewelry of Israel has been stripped from them. How can they possibly look at people in the eye and say that they are the people of God? They have been stripped of their valiant ancestry and that ancestry is described in Hebrews 11. With that, they don’t even have the Jewelry of the Temple Mount anymore, and many more Holy sites have been stripped from them. For example, the Temple Mount is in East Jerusalem, in the West Bank, and is known more as the Golden Dome, made into a Muslim Holy Site.

Above all else, the Jewish culture has been stripped of the clothing of the Holy Spirit and the jewelry of the fruit of the Spirit. That happened when they turned from God by rejecting Jesus Christ who is the giver of the Holy Spirit. Their nakedness is seen in the non-stop wars they have been involved in since the State of Israel was established in 1948 to this date, click for a list of those wars and scroll close to the bottom of the page. They are not living in the fruit of the Spirit including peace, meekness, gentleness, and humility. With that, their nakedness is seen in that Israel has the most liberal abortion rights in the world and they promote the LGBQT lifestyles. How can they possibly look at anyone in the eye and say they are a living example of the people of God?

A day will come when the Jewish people will be deeply disgusted with the ways of the world government and its global culture. They will completely turn their heart away from the agenda of the one world government. This is the hand of God working to cause them to cease their going astray from Him. This is part of what brings in the Battle of Armageddon and only a remnant of Israel survives the Day After the Battle of Armageddon

Today, the United Nations are stripping away the clothing and jewelry of every country and nation across the globe in the process of becoming the one world government. That clothing and jewelry is each nation’s culture, constitution, and national identity. Daniel chapter 1 describes exactly how that happens. The UN is forming a global culture, a global constitution, and a global identity. The one world government will mandate that everyone lives by the entity that gives people what to think, feel, say, and do. People will be identified by the image of the beast that speaks and lives through them, which is enabled by the entity giving them what to say and do. Everyone will be groomed to the mark of the beast by the words given to them to say and the behaviors given them to do. The government of the beast believes they can create a Garden of Eden on earth, without Jesus Christ, by putting an end to “sin” by puppeteering individuals.

In the next verse, we learn that the global government has hate in their heart, are ruthless rulers, and will take all that the people work for [which corresponds to a cashless society and the digital currency].

“….to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets,“
‘I will not impose any other burden on you, except to hold on to what you have until I come.’”
“I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
