BOLSTER . This word, which appears six times in AV [Note: Authorized Version.] ( 1 Samuel 19:13; 1 Samuel 19:16; 1 Samuel 26:7; 1 Samuel 26:11-12; 1 Samuel 26:16 ) as the rendering of a Heb. word signifying ‘the place at the head,’ ‘head-place,’ has rightly disappeared from RV [Note: Revised Version.] , which gives ‘head’ throughout.

A. R. S. Kennedy.
