Usage: The term תַּחֲרָא (tachara') is used in the context of ancient Hebrew attire, specifically referring to a type of garment or armor made of linen, likely worn as a protective corslet. Context: The Hebrew term תַּחֲרָא (tachara') appears in the context of ancient Israelite clothing and armor. It is understood to refer to a linen corslet, a type of protective garment worn by warriors or individuals of status. Linen, a fabric made from the fibers of the flax plant, was highly valued in ancient times for its durability and comfort, especially in the hot climate of the Near East. The corslet would have been a sleeveless, fitted garment, providing a layer of protection while allowing for ease of movement. The use of linen suggests that the corslet was not only functional but also a symbol of wealth and status, as linen was a costly material. The term is not frequently mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, indicating that such garments were likely reserved for specific individuals or occasions.
