These men were bound in their coats, their hosen and their hats.

The language shows that their dress was Babylonian, rather than Jewish. The "coat" was. kind of mantle, as stated in the margin; the "hosen" were not socks, but drawers or trousers, the entire covering of the lower limbs; the "hats" were turbans, or tiarias, such as are now worn in the same country. The margin has "turban." They were bound in the clothing that they had worn, taken just as they were, without change, no time being given for preparation of any kind.
