What is a Cloth?
CLOTH
The art of making cloth was known very early. The skins of animals supplied the place of cloth at first, but we may suppose that spinning and needle-work were so far perfected as to furnish cloth, of a coarse kind at least, at an early period. Ex 35:25; Jud 5:30. The beauty of dress consisted in the fineness and color of the cloth. See Sackcloth.
