cut the corners of their hair

[*AQuietPlace*]

What does this mean? Some kind of pagan practice?


# Jeremiah 9:26
Egypt, Judah, Edom, the sons of Ammon, Moab, and all who dwell in the desert who cut the corners of their hair, for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart."

# Jeremiah 25:23
Dedan, Tema, Buz, and all who cut the corners of their hair;

# Jeremiah 49:32
Their camels shall become plunder,their herds of livestock a spoil. I will scatter to every wind those who cut the corners of their hair,and I will bring their calamity from every side of them,declares the LORD.
