Where did the saying wearing your religion on your sleeve come from?

I always thought it derived from the fact that the Jewish leaders (Pharisees) had markings on the sleeves of their frocks, denoting their service (rather like the U.S. Army has "hash-marks"). They took great pride in the number of years, etc. without really understanding that service to God does not depend on "time served."
