Camel’s hair is clipped from the animal’s neck, back, and hump and woven into a coarse, durable, rough, and often itchy clothlike material and used for clothing. The camel’s hair garment worn by John the Baptist (Mark 1: 6) was possibly used as part of his austerity to separated him from the soft raiment and gorgeous apparel of the kings’ courts (Matt. 11: 8; Luke 7: 25) and from the Pharisees and Sadducees.
