Images connected with the magical rites used by those Israelites who added corrupt practices to the patriarchal religion .
Teraphim were consulted by the Israelites for oracular answers . --

Smith (

[
1913 Webster ]
Teraphim givers of prosperity ,
idols in human shape ,
large or small ,
analogous to the images of ancestors which were revered by the Romans .
In order to deceive the guards sent by Saul to seize David ,
Michal his wife prepared one of the household teraphim ,
putting on it the goat '
s -
hair cap worn by sleepers and invalids ,
and laid it in a bed ,
covering it with a mantle .
She pointed it out to the soldiers ,
and alleged that David was confined to his bed by a sudden illness (
1 Sam .
19 :
13 -
16 ).
Thus she gained time for David '
s escape .
It seems strange to read of teraphim ,
images of ancestors ,
preserved for superstitious purposes ,
being in the house of David .
Probably they had been stealthily brought by Michal from her father '
s house . "
Perhaps ,"
says Bishop Wordsworth , "
Saul ,
forsaken by God and possessed by the evil spirit ,
had resorted to teraphim (
as he afterwards resorted to witchcraft );
and God overruled evil for good ,
and made his very teraphim (
by the hand of his own daughter )
to be an instrument for David '
s escape .",
Deane '

Josiah attempted to suppress this form of idolatry (
2 Kings 23 :
24 ).
The ephod and teraphim are mentioned together in Hos .
3 :
4 .
It has been supposed by some (
Cheyne '
s Hosea )
that the "
ephod "
here mentioned ,
and also in Judg .
8 :
24 -
27 ,
was not the part of the sacerdotal dress so called (
Ex .
28 :
6 -
14 ),
but an image of Jehovah overlaid with gold or silver (
comp .
Judg .
17 ,
18 ;
1 Sam .
21 :

23 :

9 ;
30 :

and is thus associated with the teraphim . (
