1 Kings 21:27

Delivered in 1 Kings 21:21 ,

that he rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon, his flesh , tore off his clothes, and stripped himself of all, even of his very shirt, and put sackcloth on his bare flesh, a coarse cloth made of hair, and such as sacks are made with:

and fasted , how long it is not said:

and lay in sackcloth ; in the night on his bed, would have no linen on him day nor night:

and went softly : step by step, as persons mourning, grieving, and pensive, do; the Targum renders it "barefoot", and so Jarchi.
