Bed:
The Jewish bed consisted of the mattress, a mere mat, or one or more quilts; the covering, a finer quilt, or sometimes the outer garment worn by day (1 Samuel 19:13) which the law provided should not be kept in pledge after sunset, that the poor man might not lack his needful covering (Deuteronomy 24:13) the pillow (1 Samuel 19:13) probably formed of sheep's fleece or goat's skin with a stuffing of cotton, etc.; the bedstead, a divan or bench along the side or end of the room, sufficing at a support for the bedding. Besides we have bedsteads made of ivory, wood, etc. referred to in Deuteronomy 3:11; Amos 6:4. The ornamental portions were pillars and a canopy (Judith 13:9) ivory carvings, gold and silver, and probably mosaic work, purple and fine linen (Esther 1:6; Solomon 3:9-10). The ordinary furniture of a bedchamber in private life is given in 2 Kings 4:10.
