∙ 13y ago"A wolf in sheep's clothing" is traditionally interpreted as being a person who is being deceitful, dishonest and not to be trusted. As sheep are adult lambs and wolves are known to attack lambs, the message here is this person would like to appear to be just another lamb to deceive someone, but in reality he is waiting and hoping to attack the innocent, the sheep.
