The term "stript" is an archaic form of the word "stripped," which appears in various contexts throughout the Bible, often signifying the removal of clothing or possessions, and symbolically representing humiliation, vulnerability, or judgment. In the Berean Standard Bible (BSB), the concept of being stripped is used to convey both literal and metaphorical meanings.

Old Testament Usage

In the Old Testament, the act of stripping is frequently associated with defeat and shame. For instance, in 1 Samuel 31:9, after the death of King Saul, the Philistines "stripped him and took his head and his armor." This act of stripping Saul of his armor and head symbolizes the complete defeat and humiliation of Israel's king at the hands of their enemies.

Another significant instance is found in Isaiah 20:4, where the prophet Isaiah speaks of the Assyrian king leading away captives: "So the king of Assyria will lead away the captives of Egypt and the exiles of Cush, young and old alike, naked and barefoot, with buttocks uncovered, to the shame of Egypt." Here, the stripping of clothing is a prophetic sign of disgrace and subjugation.

New Testament Usage

In the New Testament, the concept of being stripped is often linked to the suffering and crucifixion of Jesus Christ. In Matthew 27:28, it is recorded that the Roman soldiers "stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him." This act was part of the mockery and humiliation that Jesus endured before His crucifixion, highlighting His suffering and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies regarding the Messiah.

Additionally, in Colossians 2:15, the Apostle Paul uses the imagery of stripping in a metaphorical sense: "And having disarmed the powers and authorities, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross." Here, the term "disarmed" can be understood as "stripped," indicating that Christ, through His death and resurrection, stripped spiritual powers and authorities of their power, showcasing His victory over sin and death.

Symbolic Meaning

The act of stripping in the Bible often carries a deeper symbolic meaning. It can represent the removal of sin or the old self, as seen in Ephesians 4:22-24, where believers are encouraged to "put off your former way of life, your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be renewed in the spirit of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness."

In this context, stripping away the old self is part of the transformative process of sanctification, where believers are called to shed their sinful nature and embrace a new identity in Christ.

Conclusion

The concept of being "stript" or stripped in the Bible serves as a powerful image of both physical and spiritual realities. Whether depicting the shame of defeat, the suffering of Christ, or the call to spiritual renewal, the act of stripping is a multifaceted theme that underscores the profound truths of humility, redemption, and transformation found throughout Scripture.Bible Concordance • Bible Dictionary • Bible Encyclopedia • Topical Bible • Bible Thesuarus
