Moulton & Milligan — Vocabulary of the Greek NT
σιμικίνθιον [page 575]
on its only occurrence in the NT, Act_19:12 , is usually rendered apron (so AV, RV), like the Lat. semicinctium (Mart. 14. 153, Petr. 94. 8), but Nestle ( Exp T xiii. p. 282) thinks the reference must be, not to an apron worn above the regular clothing, but to some article of underwear which had been in actual contact with the Apostle s skin (ἀπὸ τοῦ χρωτὸς αὐτοῦ ), and compares the merit attached to the Pope s stockings in certain Roman Catholic circles at the present day. For the form σιμικίνθιον for σημικίνθιον see Moulton Gr . ii. p. 172.
