We will make you earrings of gold, With studs of silver. Beloved

The Trinity's Promise

The use of 'we' leads commentators like John Gill to see the Holy Trinity as the speakers. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit promise to adorn the believer with blessings far superior to what was known before Christ. These 'plaits of gold with studs of silver' symbolize the glorious truths of the Gospel, Christ's righteousness, and the work of sanctification, all gifted by the triune God.
