Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:

(nourish). Position of importance and honor among Hebrews (Gen. 24:59; 35:8⁵⁹And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham's servant, and his men. (Genesis 24:59)
⁸But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Beth-el under an oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth. (Genesis 35:8); 2 Sam. 4:4⁴And Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son that was lame of his feet. He was five years old when the tidings came of Saul and Jonathan out of Jezreel, and his nurse took him up, and fled: and it came to pass, as she made haste to flee, that he fell, and became lame. And his name was Mephibosheth. (2 Samuel 4:4)).

“Nurse” From Concise Bible Dictionary:

Such in Old Testament times were held in esteem, as was Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse (Gen. 35:8⁸But Deborah Rebekah's nurse died, and she was buried beneath Beth-el under an oak: and the name of it was called Allon-bachuth. (Genesis 35:8)). Twice the expression, “nursing fathers,” occurs, and queens are to be “nursing mothers” to Israel in the future (Num. 11:12¹²Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? (Numbers 11:12); Isa. 49:23²³And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me. (Isaiah 49:23)). Paul said, “We were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children” (1 Thess. 2:7⁷But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children: (1 Thessalonians 2:7)).

“Assurance” From Concise Bible Dictionary:

This word has in the Old Testament a different application from that which it has in the New Testament In the former it is “confidence or trust,” and agrees with the hopes of God’s earthly people in connection with the security in which Israel will dwell when restored to their land, when all their enemies shall have been put down by divine power: the effect of righteousness will be “quietness and assurance forever,” (Isa. 32:17¹⁷And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever. (Isaiah 32:17)): whereas in their disobedience they should fear day and night and have no assurance of their life (Deut. 28:66⁶⁶And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life: (Deuteronomy 28:66)).

In the New Testament the Greek word πληροφορἰα implies “full assurance” and refers to eternal salvation. The gospel reaches a soul in power, and in the Holy Ghost and in “much full assurance” (1 Thess. 1:5⁵For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Ghost, and in much assurance; as ye know what manner of men we were among you for your sake. (1 Thessalonians 1:5)). We also meet with:

1. the full assurance of faith (Heb. 10:22²²Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. (Hebrews 10:22)); the reception of God’s testimony respecting the work of Christ and the glory He now enjoys:

2. the full assurance of hope (Heb. 6:11¹¹And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: (Hebrews 6:11)), issuing in continued diligence of the saints in their work and labor of love: and

3. the full assurance of understanding, (Col. 2:2²That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; (Colossians 2:2)), for full knowledge in the mystery of God.
