Genesis 31:34

וְ רָחֵל לָקְחָה אֶת הַ תְּרָפִים וַ תְּשִׂמֵם בְּ כַר הַ גָּמָל וַ תֵּשֶׁב עֲלֵיהֶם וַ יְמַשֵּׁשׁ לָבָן אֶת כָּל הָ אֹהֶל וְ לֹא מָצָא

And Ewe has taken אֶת-the teraphim and is putting them in the lamb1009 of the Camel and is sitting upon them. And White gropes the whole of the Tent, and he has not found.


1009

Strong’s #3733, kar. Supposed to mean “furniture” here, but it is a singular noun, and all other contexts are very different. captain, furniture, lamb, large pasture, ram. “From karar in the sense of plumpness; a ram (as full-grown and fat), including a battering-ram (as butting); hence, a meadow (as for sheep); also a pad or camel's saddle (as puffed out) -- captain, furniture, lamb, (large) pasture, ram. See also Beyth Kar, kariy.”

“…like lambs [karim] to the slaughter…” Jeremiah 51:40
