ARMHOLE (אַצִּיל, H723). This word is used twice in the KJV. In Jeremiah 38:12 it is used in the sense of “armpits,” which is the rendering of the RSV. In Ezekiel 13:18, where the KJV has “Thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the women that sew pillows to all armholes,” the RSV has “Thus says the Lord God; Woe to the women who sew magic bands upon all wrists,” and the ASV has “Thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Woe to the women that sew pillows upon all elbows.” The meaning of the Heb. is far from clear. There seems to be a reference to amulets worn on the arms or wrists.
