Bed

<1,,2825,kline>
akin to klino, "to lean" (Eng., "recline, incline" etc.), "a bed," e.g., Mark 7:30, also denotes a "couch" for reclining at meals, Mark 4:21, or a "couch" for carrying the sick, Matt. 9:2,6. The metaphorical phrase "to cast into a bed," Rev. 2:22, signifies to afflict with disease (or possibly, to lay on a bier). In Mark 7:4 the AV curiously translates the word "tables" (marg., "beds"), RV, marg. only, "couches." See COUCH.

<2,,2825,klinarion>
a diminutive of No. 1, "a small bed," is used in Acts 5:15. Some mss. have klinon. See also No. 4. See COUCH.

<3,,2845,koite>
primarily "a place for lying down" (connected with keimai, "to lie"), denotes a "bed," Luke 11:7; the marriage "bed," Heb. 13:4; in Rom. 13:13, it is used of sexual intercourse. By metonymy, the cause standing for the effect, it denotes conception, Rom. 9:10.

<4,,2895,krabbatos>
a Macedonian word (Lat. grabatus), is "a somewhat mean bed, pallet, or mattress for the poor," Mark 2:4,9,11,12; 6:55; John 5:8-11; Acts 5:15; 9:33. See also No. 2. See COUCH.

Note: The verb stronnuo or stronnumi, "to spread," signifies, in Acts 9:34, "to make a bed;" elsewhere it has its usual meaning. See FURNISH, SPREAD.
