in holiness
The Greek word for "holiness" is "ὁσιότης" (hosiotēs), which conveys a sense of piety and sacredness. In the biblical context, holiness is not merely an external adherence to religious rituals but an internal state of being set apart for God. It reflects a life dedicated to God's service and aligned with His divine nature. Historically, the concept of holiness was central to the Jewish understanding of their covenant relationship with God, as seen in the Old Testament where Israel was called to be a "holy nation" (Exodus 19:6). For Christians, holiness is a call to live in a manner that reflects the character of Christ, embodying purity and moral integrity.

and righteousness
The term "righteousness" in Greek is "δικαιοσύνη" (dikaiosynē), which refers to the quality of being morally right or justifiable. In the biblical sense, righteousness is often associated with living in accordance with God's laws and commands. It is a relational term, emphasizing right relationships with God and others. The historical context of righteousness in the Bible is deeply rooted in the covenantal relationship between God and His people, where righteousness was both a gift from God and a requirement for His followers. In the New Testament, righteousness is closely linked to faith in Jesus Christ, who fulfills the law and imparts His righteousness to believers.

before Him
The phrase "before Him" indicates living in the presence of God. The Greek word "ἐνώπιον" (enōpion) suggests being in the sight or presence of someone, in this case, God. This phrase underscores the idea that our lives are lived under God's watchful eye, emphasizing accountability and the intimate relationship believers have with their Creator. Historically, the presence of God was a significant theme in the Old Testament, symbolized by the tabernacle and later the temple, where God's glory dwelt among His people. For Christians, living "before Him" means acknowledging God's omnipresence and striving to live in a way that honors Him.

all the days of our lives
This phrase emphasizes the lifelong commitment to living in holiness and righteousness. The Greek word for "days" is "ἡμέραι" (hēmerai), which can refer to both literal days and a period of time. The use of "all the days of our lives" suggests a continuous, enduring dedication to God, not limited to specific moments or seasons. Historically, the concept of a lifelong commitment to God is seen in the lives of biblical figures like Abraham, Moses, and David, who walked with God throughout their lives. For believers, this phrase is a call to persevere in faith and obedience, trusting in God's grace to sustain them throughout their earthly journey.

(75) In holiness and righteousness.--The same combination is found, though in an inverted order, in Ephesians 4:24. "Holiness" has special reference to man's relations to God; "justice" to those which connect him with his fellow men; but, like all such words, they more or less overlap.
