Jeremiah48:37
37 For every head shall be bald, and every beard clipt: upon all the hands shall be cuttings, and upon the loyns sackcloth .
These Phrases are expounded in the beginning of the following verse, There shall be Lamentations generally upon all the house-tops of Moab. Shaving of the hair, and clipping the beards, and cutting themselves were Rites and Ceremonies of Mourning used by these Heathens.
