(נשׁ כֵלִים , nose' kelim'), an officer selected by kings and generals from the bravest of their favorites, whose service it was not only to bear their armor, but to stand by them in danger and carry their orders, somewhat after the manner of adjutants in modern service. (Judges 9:54; 1 Samuel 16:21; 1 Samuel 31:4.)
