A Roman breastplate was usually made of bronze; it covered from just below the neck to the thighs to guard the most vital organs that keep us alive. No one would dare go into battle without it.
What exactly does righteousness mean? If you think it means you have to become perfect before you are protected, just quit now. That is not what this is about! It simply means uprightness, right living, integrity in one’s lifestyle and character. It is a matter of conforming our will to God’s will. The righteousness referred to here is submitting to the lordship of Christ. Put simply, it's putting into practice what you know is right. That is why the belt of truth came first – it is fundamental. Now that we have it we need to apply it. We need to put into practice what God has told us in His Word, His community, and His worship.
