KJV DISTRIBUTION

Where raiment appears.

This is exact English-word usage from the canonical KJV token index, not a Strong's estimate.

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.

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.]
