Pallet
Holman Bible Dictionary
A small, usually straw-filled, mattress light enough to be carried. All biblical references are found in accounts or summaries of the healing of invalids (Mark 2:4-12; John 5:8-12; Acts 5:15 ). The “bedridden” man of Acts 9:33 was one who had lain on a pallet for eight years.
