BED
This thing shows up in Genesis 47:31: “He said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Genesis 47:31
“He said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Israel bowed himself on the bed’s head.”
