Footstool:
from hupo, "under," and pous, "a foot," is used
(a) literally in Jam 2:3,
(b) metaphorically, of the earth as God's "footstool," Mat 5:35; of the foes of the Lord, Mat 22:44 (in some mss.); Mar 12:36, "underneath" (in some mss.); Luk 20:43; Act 2:35; 7:49; Hbr 1:13; 10:13. The RV, adhering to the literal rendering, translates the phrase "the footstool of My (Thy, His) feet," for the AV, "My (etc.) footstool," but in Mat 22:44, "(till I put Thine enemies) underneath thy feet."
