sense in the lessons

Ezekiel and the Psalms use "richly woven" to show the beauty of a bride and of Jerusalem. In the primary lessons: In stories, kings and queens are richly dressed in velvet and gold; churches and palaces are richly decorated. In ethics and praise, «richly deserved» means fully earned. In descriptive writing, «richly coloured» paintings use strong colours. Phrases: «richly deserved», «richly decorated», «richly rewarded», «richly coloured».
