This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
The Lord God, either by his own word, or by the ministry of angels,
made coats of skins, of beasts slain either for sacrifice to God, or for the use of man, their lord and owner;
and clothed them, partly to defend them from excessive heats and colds, or other injuries of the air, to which they were now exposed; partly to mind them of their sin, which made their nakedness, which before was innocent and honourable, now to be an occasion of sin and shame, and therefore to need covering; and partly to show his care even of fallen man, and to encourage his hopes of God’s mercy through the blessed Seed, and thereby to invite him to repentance.
