10542. And the sons of Israel stripped themselves of their ornament. That this signifies the deprivation of Divine truth in the external things with them, is evident from the signification of "stripping one's self," as being to be bereft and deprived; and from the signification of "ornament," as being holy truth, or what is Divine (see n. 10536, 10540).
