Open this scene in the reader →

1Then he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of Yahweh, and the Accuser standing at his right hand to accuse him.

2And Yahweh said to the Accuser, “Yahweh rebuke you, O Accuser! Indeed, Yahweh, who has chosen Jerusalem, rebuke you! Is not this a brand snatched from the fire?”

3Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and was standing before the angel.

4And he answered and said to those standing before him, “Remove the filthy garments from upon him.” Then he said to him, “See, I have taken your iniquity away from upon you, and I will clothe you with fine garments.”

5Then I said, “Let them put a clean turban on his head.” So they put the clean turban on his head and clothed him with garments, while the angel of Yahweh was standing by.
