Thematic Bible: Wore a coarse dress of hair-cloth


Thematic Bible



John himself had a camel-hair garment with a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.


They replied, “A hairy man with a leather belt around his waist.”

He said, “It’s Elijah the Tishbite.”

On that day every prophet will be ashamed of his vision when he prophesies; they will not put on a hairy cloak in order to deceive.
