It is frequently mentioned throughout the Scriptures, symbolizing both physical and spiritual conflict. The spear, typically a long shaft with a pointed metal tip, was an essential tool for soldiers and hunters alike.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>The spear is first mentioned in the context of warfare. In <a href="/1_samuel/17-7.htm">1 Samuel 17:7</a>, Goliath, the Philistine giant, is described as having a spear "like a weaver&#8217;s beam," highlighting its massive size and the formidable nature of the enemy faced by the Israelites. This imagery underscores the seemingly insurmountable challenge that David overcame through faith in God.<br><br>King Saul, the first king of Israel, is also associated with the spear. In <a href="/1_samuel/18-10.htm">1 Samuel 18:10-11</a>, Saul, in a fit of jealousy and rage, attempts to pin David to the wall with his spear. This act of aggression illustrates Saul's declining mental state and his growing animosity towards David, whom God had chosen to succeed him.<br><br>The spear is further mentioned in the exploits of David's mighty men. In <a href="/2_samuel/23-18.htm">2 Samuel 23:18</a>, Abishai, the brother of Joab, is noted for wielding his spear against three hundred men, demonstrating the valor and strength of David's warriors.<br><br><b>New Testament References</b><br><br>While the New Testament does not focus heavily on physical weapons, the spear is notably mentioned in the context of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. In <a href="/john/19-34.htm">John 19:34</a>, a Roman soldier pierces Jesus' side with a spear, fulfilling the prophecy that "not one of His bones will be broken" (<a href="/john/19-36.htm">John 19:36</a>) and symbolizing the completion of His sacrificial work on the cross.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Spiritual Significance</b><br><br>The spear, as a weapon of war, often symbolizes conflict and aggression. However, it also represents divine intervention and protection. In <a href="/habakkuk/3-11.htm">Habakkuk 3:11</a>, the prophet describes God's power in battle, where "the sun and moon stood still in their places at the flash of Your flying arrows, at the brightness of Your shining spear." This passage highlights God's sovereignty and might in delivering His people.<br><br>In a spiritual sense, the spear can also represent the piercing conviction of God's Word. <a href="/hebrews/4-12.htm">Hebrews 4:12</a> describes the Word of God as "sharper than any double-edged sword," penetrating the heart and discerning thoughts and intentions. While not a direct reference to a spear, the imagery of piercing is akin to the spear's function, emphasizing the transformative power of divine truth.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context</b><br><br>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the spear was a primary weapon for infantry soldiers. It was used both for throwing and thrusting, making it versatile in battle. The design and craftsmanship of spears varied, with some featuring ornate decorations, indicating the status of the warrior.<br><br>The use of spears in biblical narratives often reflects the broader cultural and historical context of warfare in the ancient world. The reliance on such weapons underscores the constant threat of conflict faced by the Israelites and their need for divine protection and guidance.<br><br><b>Conclusion</b><br><br>The spear, as depicted in the Bible, serves as a powerful symbol of both human conflict and divine intervention. Its presence in key biblical narratives highlights the themes of faith, protection, and the ultimate victory of God's purposes.<a name="heb" id="heb"></a><div class="vheading2">Strong's Hebrew</div><a href="/hebrew/6767b.htm"><span class="l">6767b. tsiltsal -- a spear</span></a><br><b>...</b> a spear.
