<p> <strong> CLOUT </strong> . Jeremiah 38:11-12 ‘old cast clouts.’ The word is still used in [[Scotland]] for cloths (as in ‘dish-clout’), but for clothes only contemptuously. [[Formerly]] there was no contempt in the word. [[Sir]] John Mandeville ( <em> Travels </em> , Macmillan’s ed. p. 75) says, ‘And in that well she washed often-time the clouts of her son [[Jesu]] Christ.’ The verb ‘to clout’ occurs in Joshua 9:5 , of shoes (Amer. RV [Note: [[Revised]] Version.] ‘patched’). </p> | |||

<p> is given in Joshua 9:5 as the rendering of the Heb. verb טָלָא , (tala elsewhere rendered "spotted"), which properly means to patch, and denotes that the sandals of the [[Gibeonites]] were mended, as if old and worn by a long journey. The "cast clouts" (סְחָבָה, sechabah', literally a tearing in pieces) put under Jeremiah's arms to prevent the cords by which he was drawn out of the dungeon from cutting into the flesh (Jeremiah 38:11-12) were old torn clothes or rags. </p> | |||
