3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “bowels” →
For we have great joy and consolation in thy love, because the bowels of the saints are refreshed by thee, brother.
Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:
Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.
