INTERPRETATION OF IMAGERY
Ivory is a creamy white brown, a beige mixture of pure color of white for light & truth and brown for death and darkness- Its name describes it spiritual condition. Its the desire of the Lord for this nation to be delivered from the curse of death over it, but the souls have chosen a culture of death and not life. Seeing a dead plant with a seed sprouting new growth
Deu 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live
