Verses 18-19

18, 19. In that day The day of their coming punishment.

Bravery In Isaiah 4:2 this word means comely. It is applied to different things: in Isaiah 60:7, to the temple; in Isaiah 64:11, to Jerusalem. May it not here mean finery? (There is difficulty in determining the meaning of terms in these verses, because many of them are used only here in the Bible. According to best means at hand, scholars have made them out, generally, as here given.)

Cauls A network covering for the top of the head, usually made of silk. According to Furst, they are little suns or spangles.

Round tires Literally, moons, in crescent form; used, perhaps, to deck the network veils.

Chains More properly eardrops; resembling amber drops.

Bracelets For the wrists, or collars for the neck.

Mufflers Veils, light and tremulous; “a veil for the face used by higher-class ladies.”
