Couch:
(Gen 49:4; 1Ch 5:1; Job 7:13; Psa 6:6, etc.), a seat for repose or rest. (See BED.)
Couch:
kouch (substantive.).
Couch (verb): rabhats, "to crouch," "lurk," as a beast in readiness to spring on its prey. "If thou doest not well, sin coucheth at the door" (Ge 4:7, the King James Version "lieth"), waiting for it to open. Cain is warned to beware of the first temptations to evil, in his case especially a sullen and jealous disposition (compare Dante, Inferno, I, 30). See ABEL; CAIN. The tribe of Judah is compared for its bravery to a recumbent lion or lioness (Ge 49:9; compare Nu 24:9 f); and Issachar to "a strong ass, couching down between the sheepfolds" (Ge 49:14, the King James Version "between two burdens"; compare Jud 5:16). "The deep that coucheth beneath" (De 33:13), probably the springs of water, or possibly, as Driver suggests, "the subterranean deep, pictured as a gigantic monster."

Bed:
(Heb. mittah), for rest at night (Exd 8:3; 1Sa 19:13,15,16, etc.); during sickness (Gen 47:31; 48:2; 49:33, etc.); as a sofa for rest (1Sa 28:23; Amo 3:12). Another Hebrew word (er'es) so rendered denotes a canopied bed, or a bed with curtains (Deu 3:11; Psa 132:3), for sickness (Psa 6:6; 41:3).
In the New Testament it denotes sometimes a litter with a coverlet (Mat 9:2,6; Luk 5:18; Act 5:15).
The Jewish bedstead was frequently merely the divan or platform along the sides of the house, sometimes a very slight portable frame, sometimes only a mat or one or more quilts. The only material for bed-clothes is mentioned in 1Sa 19:13. Sleeping in the open air was not uncommon, the sleeper wrapping himself in his outer garment (Exd 22:26,27; Deu 24:12,13).
He is a cross pendant.
He is engraved with a unique Number.
He will mail it out from Jerusalem.
He will be sent to your Side.
