It can denote a place of comfort or repose, and in some instances, it is used metaphorically to describe a place of illness or death.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite culture, a bed was not only a place for sleeping but also a symbol of one's status and comfort. Beds were often simple, consisting of mats or cushions laid on the floor, but wealthier individuals might have more elaborate furnishings. The concept of a bed as a place of rest is deeply embedded in the cultural understanding of peace and security, as well as vulnerability during sleep.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive
