imation is used in a general sense to mean clothing, and may
thus be applied to any garment when it is not desired to express its
exact nature. In a more specific use, however, it denotes the large
loose outer garment, a cloak, which ordinarily was worn, but in
working was laid aside.
citwn is best expressed by the word tunic. It was a closely
fitting under-garment, usually worn next the skin. At times, especially
in working, it was the only garment worn. A person clothed only in the
citwn was often called gumnov (Joh 21:7). imation and
citwn are often found associated as the upper and under garment
respectively.
imatismov does not denote a specific garment, but means
clothing, being used, however, ordinarily only of garments more or
less stately or costly.
clamuv is a robe or cloak; it is a technical expression for
a garment of dignity or office.
stolh is any stately robe, ordinarily long, reaching to the feet or
sweeping the ground, often worn by women.
podhrhv was originally an adjective meaning reaching to the
feet. It can hardly be distinguished in use from stolh. It
occurs only in Re 1:13.
