Study Note
The confession 'we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags' (Hebrew 'iddim,' menstrual cloths — the most ceremonially impure garment in the Levitical system) is the Hebrew Bible's most thoroughgoing denial of human moral self-sufficiency. The corporate 'we' extends the indictment beyond personal sin to include Israel's covenant identity: even their best religious performances are tainted by the impurity of the heart that performs them. The verse has been consistently cited in Protestant soteriology as the counterpart to Isaiah 61:10's robe of righteousness with which God clothes the redeemed — human filthiness replaced by divine gift-clothing. Romans 3:10-12's catena of Old Testament texts ('there is none righteous, no, not one') develops the same comprehensive anthropology of universal moral inadequacy before God.
