Commentary on Isaiah 3:19

Theological / Devotional

Chains. Heb. netiphoth, literally, “eardrops.” These were probably pendants hanging from the ears.

Bracelets. Bracelets were, and still are, a favorite ornament in Oriental lands. They were frequently large and gaudy, and several were often worn at a time.

Mufflers. Heb. re‘aloth, “veils,” that is, scarfs or long, flowing veils.
