Crossword Genius

Divine new iced bags provided (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deific

'divine' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'new iced bags provided' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates anagramming the letters.
'bags' is an insertion indicator (bag can mean secures or steals).
'provided' becomes 'if' (eg 'provided it's sunny' means 'if it's sunny').
'iced' is an anagram of 'deic'.
'deic' enclosing 'if' is 'DEIFIC'.

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
