Little Sister, where are you?

We have a little sister, And she has no breasts; What shall we do for our sister on the day when she is spoken for? 8:8

I was a wall, and my breasts were like towers; Then I became in his eyes as one who finds peace. 8:10

But since we are of {the} day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet, the hope of salvation.

If you don't get it, don't worry about it.


no breasts--neither faith nor love as yet which "come by hearing" of Him who first loved us. Not yet fit to be His bride, and mother of a spiritual offspring.

"Breasts" of consolation faith and love; opposed to her previous state, "no breasts"
