The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and hid in caves and holes in the ground.
In context
36 Still others endured mocking and flogging, and even chains and imprisonment.
37 They were stoned, they were sawed in two, they were put to death by the sword. They went around in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, oppressed, and mistreated.
38 The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and hid in caves and holes in the ground.
39 These were all commended for their faith, yet they did not receive what was promised.
