The imagery of biting is used both literally and metaphorically throughout Scripture to convey various spiritual and moral lessons.<br><br>1. <b>Literal Bites:</b><br>&#183; <b>Serpents and Snakes:</b> One of the most prominent literal uses of "bite" in the Bible is in reference to serpents. In <a href="/numbers/21-6.htm">Numbers 21:6</a>, the Israelites faced a plague of fiery serpents as a consequence of their rebellion against God: "So the LORD sent venomous snakes among the people, and many of the Israelites were bitten and died." This event underscores the seriousness of disobedience and the need for repentance and divine intervention, as later seen when Moses is instructed to make a bronze serpent for the healing of those bitten (<a href="/numbers/21-8.htm">Numbers 21:8-9</a>).<br>&#183; <b>Animal Bites:</b> The Bible also mentions the danger of animal bites in a more general sense. <a href="/ecclesiastes/10-8.htm">Ecclesiastes 10:8</a> warns, "He who digs a pit may fall into it, and he who breaches a wall may be bitten by a snake." This proverb highlights the unpredictability of life and the potential consequences of one's actions.<br><br>2. <b>Metaphorical Bites:</b><br>&#183; <b>Gossip and Slander:</b> The act of biting is metaphorically used to describe the destructive nature of gossip and slander. <a href="/galatians/5-15.htm">Galatians 5:15</a> cautions believers, "But if you keep on biting and devouring one another, watch out, or you will be consumed by one another." This passage warns against the divisive and harmful effects of negative speech within the Christian community.<br>&#183; <b>Sin and Temptation:</b> The imagery of a bite is also used to illustrate the enticing yet harmful nature of sin. <a href="/proverbs/23-32.htm">Proverbs 23:32</a> describes the effects of wine, stating, "In the end it bites like a snake and stings like a viper." This serves as a warning against the deceptive allure of sinful pleasures that ultimately lead to spiritual harm.<br><br>3. <b>Divine Protection:</b><br> &#183; The Bible assures believers of God's protection against the metaphorical bites of evil. In <a href="/luke/10-19.htm">Luke 10:19</a>, Jesus tells His disciples, "Behold, I have given you authority to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you." This promise emphasizes the authority and protection granted to believers through faith in Christ.<br><br>4. <b>Symbol of Judgment:</b><br> &#183; The bite of a serpent is sometimes used as a symbol of divine judgment. In <a href="/amos/5-19.htm">Amos 5:19</a>, the prophet describes a scenario of inescapable judgment: "It will be as though a man fled from a lion only to encounter a bear, and when he enters his house and rests his hand on the wall, a snake bites him." This imagery conveys the inevitability of God's judgment upon those who persist in sin.<br><br>In summary, the concept of "bite" in the Bible serves as a powerful symbol of danger, the consequences of sin, and the need for vigilance and reliance on God's protection. Through both literal and metaphorical uses, Scripture provides profound insights into the spiritual realities faced by believers.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
