Example: "And Moses stripped Aaron of
his garments..." (Numbers
20:28)
Definition:
Garments are sacred underclothing worn by members
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who have gone to the temple.
The garments are worn as a reminder of sacred covenants made with the Lord and
are also there to protect against temptation and evil. They remind us of being
modest and properly clothed. They are not a secret but are sacred, meaning that
we respect and reverence them in words and actions.
