ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

WEBSTER’S 1828

English meaning and historical usage.

Dictionary data is kept visibly separate from Scripture and from lexical Strong's data.

raiment

RA'IMENT, noun [for arrayment. See Array and Ray.]

1. Clothing in general; vestments; vesture; garments.

Genesis 24:53. Deuteronomy 8:4.

Living, both food and raiment she supplies.

2. A single garment.

[In this sense it is rarely used, and indeed is improper.]

Noah Webster, An American Dictionary of the English Language (1828). A conservative base-form lookup may be used when the exact inflected KJV form is not a Webster headword.
