Collar
Collar
the rendering of one Gr. and two Heb. words in the Auth. Vers. 1. (peh, Job 30:18; where, however, some merely read , as), properly signifies a mouth, in which sense it often occurs, and is hence applied to any aperture or orifice. SEE MOUTH.
It is frequently applied elsewhere (as in the passage cited) to the opening of a garment that closes around the. neck, such as the tunic (Exo 39:23, Psa 133:2). See EPHOD. 2. (netiphoth’, drops, Jdg 8:26), collars, mentioned among the spoils of the Midianites, were a peculiar kind of pendant, or ear-drop, probably of pearls, and hence different from the ordinary ear-ring (q.v.). The same term occurs in the list of female attire in Isa 3:19, where it is translated chains (q.v.). 3. (Sir 33:26), a thong, i.e. strap for harnessing a beast of burden to the yoke (q.v.).

Collar
(Heb. peh), means in Job 30:18 the mouth or opening of the garment that closes round the neck in the same way as a tunic (Ex. 39:23). The “collars” (Heb. netiphoth) among the spoils of the Midianites (Judg. 8:26; R.V., “pendants”) were ear-drops. The same Hebrew word is rendered “chains” in Isa. 3:19.

(1) (, netphah, plural , netphoth, literally, drops, from , nataph, to drop). Jdg 8:26 includes netphoth among the spoils taken from the Midianites and Ishmaelites; the Revised Version (British and American) pendants, the King James Version collars. Kimhi at the place suggests perfume-dropper.
(2) (, peh, literally, mouth). In Job 30:18 the word is used to indicate the collar band, or hole of a robe, through which the head was inserted. Job, in describing his suffering and writhing, mentions the disfiguring of his garment, and suggests that the whole thing feels as narrow or close-fitting as the neckband, or perhaps that in his fever and pains he feels as if the neckband itself is choking him.
(3) (, cnok, Jer 29:26, stocks; the Revised Version (British and American) shackles, which see; the Revised Version, margin collar). An instrument of torture or punishment.
