For σκέπασμα, ";covering,"; with special reference to ";clothing,"; as in 1 Timothy 6:8, cf. the corresponding use of σκέπη in Aristeas 140 βρωτῶν καὶ ποτῶν καὶ σκέπης, ";meat and drink and raiment."; The metaphorical use of the verb, as in Sap 5:16, Sirach 2:13, may be illustrated by P Hib I. 35.10 (c. B.C. 250) ὑπὸ ὑ [μῶ ]ν σκεπαζόμε [θ ]α, ";we are protected by you,"; and by the similar use of σκεπάω in P Lond 897ii. 6 (A.D. 84) (= III. p. 206) ἐὰν δὲ δύνημαι σκεπάσ ̣αι ἢ ὑπὸ σκέπην τινὰ γενέσθαι.
