It is first mentioned in Ex. 28: 40 ( A. V., " bonnets;" R. V., " head- tires"). It was used especially for purposes of ornament ( Job 29: 14; Isa. 3: 23; 62: 3). The Hebrew word here used, _tsaniph_, properly means a turban, folds of linen wound round the head. The Hebrew word _peer_, used in Isa. 61: 3, there rendered " beauty" ( A. V.) and " garland" ( R. V.), is a head- dress or turban worn by females ( Isa. 3: 20, " bonnets"), priests ( Ex. 39: 28), a bridegroom ( Isa. 61: 10, " ornament;" R. V., " garland"). Ezek. 16: 10 and Jonah 2: 5 are to be understood of the turban wrapped round the head. The Hebrew _shebisim_ ( Isa. 3: 18), in the Authorized Version rendered " cauls," and marg. " networks," denotes probably a kind of netted head- dress. The " horn" ( Heb. keren) mentioned in 1 Sam. 2: 1 is the head- dress called by the Druses of Mount Lebanon the tantura.
