- skins:
- Travellers inform us, that the Eastern goats have long, fine, and beautiful hair, of the most delicate silky softness; indeed the animals generally in those hot countries are not covered with so thick a coat of hair as they are in more northerly regions; so that Isaac might easily be deceived, when his eyes were dim, and his feeling no less impaired than his sight. "And she putª° the skinsª of the kidsª of the goatsª upon¹ his hands,ª and upon¹ the smoothª of his neck:ª" {Gen 27:16}
