Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 19. - The chains, and the bracelets, and the mufflers; rather, the ear-drops, and the armlets, and the veils. Earrings were worn from very ancient times by both the Assyrians and the Egyptians. The ring had frequently a pendant hanging from it. Men wore armlets in Assyria, and both men and women in Egypt (Lepsius, 'Denktamer,' pt. 3. pl. 1). Veils have always been regarded in the East as almost a necessary part of female attire.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(19) The chains.--Better, as in Judges 8:26, where they are also ornaments of Midianite kings, earrings. These and the "bracelets "were probably of gold. The "mufflers" were the long flowing veil, or mantilla, worn so as to cover the head, as now in Spain, or Egypt, or Turkey.
