Coat of Mail:
the rendering of a Hebrew word meaning "glittering" (1Sa 17:5,38). The same word in the plural form is translated "habergeons" in 2Ch 26:14 and Neh 4:16. The "harness" (1Ki 22:34), "breastplate" (Isa 59:17), and "brigandine" (Jer 46:4), were probably also corselets or coats of mail. (See ARMOUR.)
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
