household servants, body of servants (collective)
This feminine noun denotes a household's body of servants collectively—not individual slaves but the entire service staff as a group. Both occurrences list 'servants' alongside flocks, herds, and other wealth indicators. Genesis 26:14 describes Isaac's prosperity: 'flocks and herds and a great household of servants,' while Job 1:3 similarly catalogs Job's wealth including 'very many servants.' The word emphasizes the household as an economic and social unit, with servants representing labor capacity and status.

1. sense 1 — The collective body of household servants, listed among wealth indicators alongside livestock and possessions. Genesis 26:14 and Job 1:3 both enumerate servants as part of patriarchal prosperity. Spanish 'servidumbre' (household staff) and German 'Gesinde' (servants collectively) capture the collective sense better than individual 'servants.' 2×
