Strong's Lexicon klinidion: Small bed, cot, or couch Original Word: κλινίδιον Word Origin: Diminutive form of κλίνη (klinē), meaning "bed" or "couch." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: While there is no direct Hebrew equivalent for "klinidion," the concept of a bed or resting place can be related to Hebrew terms like מִשְׁכָּב (mishkav), meaning "bed" or "couch." Usage: The term "klinidion" refers to a small bed or cot, often used for reclining or resting. In the context of the New Testament, it is typically associated with a portable or simple bed, which could be easily carried or moved. Cultural and Historical Background: In the Greco-Roman world, beds and couches were common household items, used for sleeping, dining, and reclining. The diminutive form "klinidion" suggests a smaller, more modest piece of furniture, possibly used by those of lower economic status or for temporary purposes. Such items were practical for travel or for those who did not have permanent homes. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origindim. of kliné Definition a small couch NASB Translation stretcher (2).
