<p> '''''ā´prun''''' : Appears only in Genesis 3:7 and Acts 19:12 English Versions. (English na-prun, North of [[England]] nap-peon, from Low Latin, through French nape, nappe, "napkin." The "n" was dropped owing to false division of the article <i> a </i> from the noun; thus "a napron" became "an apron:" In [[Genesis]] 3:7 it is used to translate a [[Hebrew]] word rendered "girdles" in Revised Version margin: "And they sewed fig-leaves together and made themselves aprons." In Acts 19:12 σιμικίνθια , <i> '''''simikı́nthia''''' </i> , stands for <i> semicinctia </i> , which is really a Latin word meaning "half-girdle," i.e. girdles going only half round the body and covering the front of the person: "Unto the sick were carried away from his (Paul's) body handkerchiefs ( <i> '''''soudária''''' </i> , rendered "napkins" Luke 19:20; John 11:44; John 20:7 ) or aprons." The word denotes here, probably, a workman's apron, perhaps those of Paul himself; though it seems more natural to suppose that the people brought their own "handkerchiefs" or "aprons" to Paul to secure the miraculous effect desired. The garments, at any rate, were such as could be easily removed and carried back and forth.
