“They wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented of whom the world was not worthy.” Hebrews 11:37 . “Name of pride is your name, O kinsman of Emmanuel, for you are great among all the saints, O John the Baptist. You are exalted more than the patriarchs, more honored than the prophets, for no one born of women, is like you.
