The Sacred in the Secular
Commentators unanimously see this verse as a powerful vision of a future time when the line between sacred and secular disappears. The inscription 'HOLY UNTO JEHOVAH,' once reserved for the high priest's mitre, will adorn even common horse bells. This signifies that everyday life and ordinary objects will be consecrated to God, elevating all of life to an act of worship.
