Context: The Hebrew term סִרְיֹן (siryon) refers to a coat of mail, a form of protective armor used in ancient warfare. This type of armor was typically constructed from small metal rings or scales that were linked together to form a flexible yet protective covering for the body. The coat of mail was an essential part of a warrior's equipment, providing defense against swords, arrows, and other weapons. In the Hebrew Bible, the term סִרְיֹן is specifically mentioned in 1 Samuel 17:5, where it describes the armor worn by Goliath, the Philistine giant.

The construction and design of such armor would have required significant skill and resources, indicating the value placed on effective defense mechanisms in warfare.
