Meaning

Bondservant bond'-sur-vant: Appears only once in the King James Version (Le 25:39) where it translates `ebhedh, "a slave": "Thou shalt not cause him to render the service of a bondservant" or slave. the Revised Version (British and American) frequently uses bondservant (doulos) instead of the word "servant" of the King James Version (Joh 8:34, Joh 8:35, 1Co 7:21, Gal 4:7).
