Hood
Summary
A head covering or veil worn by women, mentioned among the finery Isaiah warns will be removed from proud Jerusalem's daughters.
☩Context
Isaiah 3:23 lists 'hoods' (KJV) among the elaborate clothing and jewelry of Jerusalem's women that God would remove in judgment. The Hebrew word likely refers to some type of turban, veil, or head covering fashionable among wealthy women. Various translations render it differently: 'turbans' (NIV), 'veils' (ESV), indicating uncertainty about the exact garment intended.
