Isaiah3:24
24 And it shall come to pass, that in stead of sweet smell , there shall be stink ; and in stead of a girdle , a rent ; and in stead of wellset hair, baldness; and in stead of a stomacher, a girding of sackcloth; and burning , in stead of beauty.
Those Perfumes mentioned v. 20.
From their scabs mentioned v. 17. or from other ill usages of their Enemies.
Which were fine and costly, and useful to gird their Garments about them.
Either the rending of their Garments for grief; or torn and tattered Garments, not sufficient to cover their Bodies.
By the heat of the Sun, to which they are now commonly exposed, from which they used formerly to guard themselves with great care.
