## In Jewish tradition

It means changed and spoiled in shape, as when Job's clothes are twisted and stuck to him by sickness.

**Interpretation.** Job's illness is so great that it changes how his body and clothing look. The tradition sees this as part of his deep suffering as he is tested.

### Examples

- By the great force of my disease is my garment disfigured; it bindeth me about as the collar of my coat. (Writings JOB.30.18, JPS 1917) [tree →](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/dictionaries/judaism/D/disfigured/#x1)
