QUIVER

QUIVER the sheath for arrows. The Hebrew word (aspah) thus commonly rendered is found in Job 39=>23; Psalm 127=>5; Isaiah 22=>6; 49=>2; Jeremiah 5=>16; Lamentations 3=>13. In Genesis 27=>3 this word is the rendering of the Hebrew teli, which is supposed rather to mean a suspended weapon, literally “that which hangs from one”, i.e., is suspended from the shoulder or girdle.
