mystic wrote:The concept of nakedness in the Bible can refer to various things, not just the physical body. So, we could talk of a nakedness (simplicity) of the heart, or a veiled, hidden heart.
We know that the holy people "undress" the holy organ (Brit Milah, circumcision), but there is also an "undressing of the heart" (Brit Ha-Lev, circumcision of the heart).
It seems that unveiling our heart instead of hiding it has a special meaning.
That is true, nakedness can have different meanings and applications depending the context.Yes, He was trying to draw them out. God knew where they were. We we read the Scripture, it was when there is no sin, no lust. They were naked actually, but when they commit sin, they have the knowledge of sin. They did not know they were naked before they sinned, because they were still innocent , but after sin came shame.They had knowledge of things before the fall but not of sin. why would they have to know that. It would not be important in their lives.
