November 2026 several of us are going to take on the 30-Day Idiom Coach4aday Challenge. Each day we will identify a ‘Saying or Expression” and explore what its origins are. For Day 13 we explore the expression “A WOLF IN SHEEP”S CLOTHING”
Many of the expressions we use every day have fascinating histories, cultural connections, and lessons that remain relevant today. The goal of this challenge is to explore those.
Today’s idiom is another that comes from the Bible. Jesus in his Sermon on the Mount issued a warning ““Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.”
