The coat, often referred to as a tunic or robe, was a basic piece of clothing worn by men and women alike, typically made from wool, linen, or other available materials. It was a versatile garment, providing warmth, modesty, and sometimes indicating social or religious status. Old Testament References The coat is first mentioned in the context of Adam and Eve. After the Fall, God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife, providing them with clothing (<a href="/genesis/3-21.htm">Genesis 3:21</a>). This act signifies God's provision and care, even after the entrance of sin into the world. Joseph's "coat of many colors" is one of the most famous references to a coat in the Old Testament. This special garment, given to Joseph by his father Jacob, symbolized Jacob's favoritism towards him, which incited jealousy and hatred among his brothers (<a href="/genesis/37-3.htm">Genesis 37:3</a>). The coat played a pivotal role in the narrative of Joseph's life, as it was used by his brothers to deceive their father into believing Joseph had been killed by a wild animal (<a href="/genesis/37-31.htm">Genesis 37:31-33</a>). In the priestly context, coats were part of the sacred garments worn by the priests. <a href="/exodus/28-4.htm">Exodus 28:4</a> lists the coat as one of the garments for Aaron and his sons, signifying their consecration and service in the tabernacle. The coat, along with other priestly garments, was made with specific instructions, highlighting the importance of holiness and purity in worship. New Testament References In the New Testament, coats are mentioned in various contexts, often reflecting the customs and social practices of the time. Jesus, in His teachings, referred to coats in the context of generosity and non-retaliation. In <a href="/matthew/5-40.htm">Matthew 5:40</a> , He instructed, "If someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well." This teaching emphasizes the call to go beyond what is required, demonstrating love and selflessness. The soldiers who crucified Jesus cast lots for His garments, including His seamless tunic, fulfilling the prophecy found in <a href="/psalms/22-18.htm">Psalm 22:18</a> (<a href="/john/19-23.htm">John 19:23-24</a>). This act underscores the fulfillment of Scripture and the humiliation Christ endured for humanity's redemption. Symbolism and Significance Coats in the Bible often carry symbolic meanings. They can represent authority, as seen in the case of Joseph, or humility and service, as demonstrated by Jesus' teachings. The act of giving or receiving a coat can symbolize covenant relationships, protection, or the transfer of authority. In a broader spiritual sense, the concept of being "clothed" is used metaphorically in Scripture to describe the righteousness and salvation provided by God. <a href="/isaiah/61-10.htm">Isaiah 61:10</a> states, "I will rejoice greatly in the LORD; my soul will exult in my God. For He has clothed me with garments of salvation and wrapped me in a robe of righteousness." Overall, the coat serves as a multifaceted symbol throughout the Bible, reflecting God's provision, human relationships, and spiritual truths.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Coat[<a href="../d/dress.htm">DRESS</a>]<a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>CoatThe tunic worn like the shirt next the skin (<a href="/leviticus/16-4.htm">Leviticus 16:4</a>; Cant. 5:3; <a href="/2_samuel/15-32.htm">2 Samuel 15:32</a>; <a href="/exodus/28-4.htm">Exodus 28:4</a>; <a href="/exodus/29-5.htm">29:5</a>). The "coats of skins" prepared by God for Adam and Eve were probably nothing more than aprons (<a href="/genesis/3-21.htm">Genesis 3:21</a>). This tunic was sometimes woven entire without a seam (<a href="/john/19-23.htm">John 19:23</a>); it was also sometimes of "many colours" (<a href="/genesis/37-3.htm">Genesis 37:3</a>; R.V. marg., "a long garment with sleeves"). The "fisher's coat" of <a href="/john/21-7.htm">John 21:7</a> was obviously an outer garment or cloak, as was also the "coat" made by Hannah for Samuel (<a href="/1_samuel/2-19.htm">1 Samuel 2:19</a>).

The "harness" (<a href="/1_kings/22-34.htm">1 Kings 22:34</a>), "breastplate" (<a href="/isaiah/59-17.htm">Isaiah 59:17</a>), and "brigandine" (<a href="/jeremiah/46-4.htm">Jeremiah 46:4</a>), were probably also corselets or coats of mail.
