And Things Of The Bible -- Apron
Found in the Authorized Version in Gen. 3:7, of the bands of
fig-leaves made by our first parents. In Acts 19:12, it denotes the belt
or half-girdle worn by artisans and servants round the waist for the
purpose of preserving the clothing from injury. In marg. of Authorized
Version, Ruth 3:15, correctly rendered instead of "vail." (R.V.,
"mantle.")
