How did the ancient Israelites spend their free time

While the men were typically involved in occupational work, the women usually raised children and took care of housework like cooking and sewing. The Israelites began as a nomadic people who traveled from place to place and lived in tents, but when they settled down, they built houses usually of stone, wood, and/or bricks made from mud. Often these houses would be grouped together and extended families would live in these groups with a shared courtyard.

Within the house, furniture was sparse for the common Israelite. Beds were often just quilts spread on the ground to sleep on, although some Israelites might have had couches that acted as places to sleep, sit, and even eat on. If there was a table, it was typically a piece of leather spread on the ground that people would sit around. Finally, Israelites would have had a menorah, or a multibranched candlestick, for light. Most of the furniture would have been made of wood or stone, depending on the area, though government officials would have had furniture inlaid with gold or precious stones.
