(פֵּטַישׁ ,pattish', only in the plur., marg. פֶּטֶשׁ pe'tesh., Chald., hosen," Daniel 3:21). What article of apparel is here denoted is not certain. Theodotion (perhaps also the Sept.) and the Vulg. understand a tiara; compare Greek πέτασος, Venet. Gr. vers. ἀναξυρίς; but the Heb. interpreters more correctly render a tunic or undergarment (כֻּתֹּנֶת =χιτών ), a signification that better agrees with an ample garment (from (פָּטִשׁ, to expand). The term does not elsewhere occur; but see Buxtorff, Lex. Talm. col. 1865. (See Dress).
