Thus saith Isa 41:22-23 therefore 2Kgs 1:3-4; 1Chr 10:13-14; Ps 16:4 What manner of man was he Heb. What was the manner of the man, Judg 8:18; 1Sam 28:14 an hairy man That is, he wore a rough garment, either made of camels' hair, as that of John Baptist, or of a skin, dressed with the hair on. Sir J. Chardin informs us, in a manuscript note on this place, cited by Mr. Harmer, that the eastern dervishes and fakeers are clothed just as Elijah was, with a hairy garment, girded with a leathern girdle. Isa 20:2; Zech 13:4; Matt 3:4, Matt 11:8; Luke 1:17; Rev 11:3
