In Jesus time they did.
The codpiece came about with pants, and served as the fly.
The last guy I saw wear one was Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull), but I thought it was for balance while standing on one foot, playing the flute for 15 minutes at a time.

My knowledge of Christian mythology is primarily derived from Life of Brian (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0079470/).
