Βαδδίν
Adler number: beta,17
Translated headword: linen garment
Vetting Status: high
Translation: A sacred robe. Daniel [says]: "I lifted up my eyes and looked, and there was a man clothed in a linen garment."[1]
Greek Original:Βαδδίν: στολὴ ἱερά. Δανιήλ: ἦρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἦν ἀνὴρ ἐνδεδυμένος βαδδίν.
Notes:
The headword is a transliteration of Hebrew בּדים
badim ('fine linens'). This Hellenized form occurs only in the book of Daniel in the
Septuagint (see next note) and in commentary and lexicography relating to it. Cf.
Hesychius beta32, whence the LSJ entry (Web address 1): 'a choice linen garment'. The Hebrew word (both plural and singular) occurs elsewhere in the Hebrew Bible, but is generally translated with other words in the Septuagint; e.g.
Ezekiel 9:2,
ποδήρης ('foot-length [garment]').
[1] Daniel 10:5; cf. 12:6, 12:7.
