# lying down at the table

During the time of Christ, Jews would often dine together in the Greek style, in which they lay on their sides on low couches. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# Jesus' side

Lying with one's head against the side of another diner in the Greek style was considered to be the place of greatest friendship with him.
