In ancient times, the plow was a simple yet vital tool used by farmers to turn over the soil, making it ready for planting seeds. The biblical references to the plow provide insight into the agrarian lifestyle of the Israelites and carry deeper spiritual meanings. Biblical References: 1. <a href="/genesis/45-6.htm">Genesis 45:6</a> · The plow is indirectly referenced in the context of Joseph's interpretation of Pharaoh's dream, which foretold seven years of famine following seven years of plenty. The preparation of the land during the years of plenty would have involved plowing to ensure abundant harvests. 2. <a href="/1_samuel/13-20.htm">1 Samuel 13:20-21</a> · "So all Israel went down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, his mattock, his ax, and his sickle. The charge was a pim for the plowshares and mattocks, and a third of a shekel for sharpening the axes and for setting the goads." This passage highlights the dependence on the Philistines for sharpening agricultural tools, including plowshares, illustrating the Israelites' subjugation and the importance of plowing in their daily lives. 3. <a href="/1_kings/19-19.htm">1 Kings 19:19</a> · "So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat. He was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen, and he himself was driving the twelfth pair. Elijah passed by him and threw his cloak around him." This account of Elisha's calling underscores the significance of plowing as a symbol of hard work and dedication. Elisha's immediate response to Elijah's call, leaving his plow, signifies a readiness to serve God. 4. <a href="/proverbs/20-4.htm">Proverbs 20:4</a> · "The sluggard does not plow in season; at harvest time he looks, but nothing is there." This proverb uses the act of plowing as a metaphor for diligence and foresight. It warns against laziness and the consequences of failing to prepare adequately. 5. <a href="/isaiah/2-4.htm">Isaiah 2:4</a> · "Then He will judge between the nations and arbitrate for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor will they train anymore for war." This prophetic vision of peace uses the transformation of swords into plowshares to symbolize a future where tools of war are converted into instruments of agriculture and productivity. 6. <a href="/luke/9-62.htm">Luke 9:62</a> · "Then Jesus declared, 'No one who puts his hand to the plow and then looks back is fit for the kingdom of God.'" Here, Jesus uses the plow as a metaphor for commitment and perseverance in the Christian life. Just as a farmer must focus on the task at hand to plow straight furrows, a disciple must remain steadfast and not be distracted by past concerns. Symbolism and Spiritual Lessons: The plow in biblical literature often symbolizes preparation, diligence, and commitment. It serves as a reminder of the importance of hard work and the necessity of preparing one's heart and life for spiritual growth and service. The act of plowing is a precursor to sowing and reaping, reflecting the biblical principle that one must prepare and labor before enjoying the fruits of one's efforts. In a spiritual context, the plow represents the breaking up of the fallow ground of the heart, as mentioned in <a href="/hosea/10-12.htm">Hosea 10:12</a>: "Sow for yourselves righteousness and reap the fruit of loving devotion; break up your unplowed ground. For it is time to seek the LORD until He comes and sends righteousness upon you like rain." This imagery calls believers to repentance and readiness to receive God's blessings. Overall, the plow is a powerful biblical symbol that conveys themes of preparation, transformation, and dedication, both in the physical and spiritual realms.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

This is partly because there is every reason to believe that the plows still used throughout Egypt, Palestine, and Syria are counterparts of the ancient ones. The first plows were probably an adaptation of the ancient Egyptian hoe, where the handle was lengthened in order that animals might be hitched to it. To make it easier to break up the ground, it was pointed, and handles were added by which it could be guided. The ancient plow probably varied in type in different sections of the country, as it does today. In one form a young tree Of oak or other strong wood of a diameter of 3 or 4 inches is cut off just below a good-sized branch and again 15 or 20 inches above. The upper end of the severed trunk is pointed and forms the share. Between this and the side branch is fitted a brace. The branch is cut off 10 or 12 ft. from the trunk and forms the pole. A lighter stick, about 3 ft. long, projects upward from the share and forms the handle. The plow used in Syria is of slightly different construction. The handle and share are one continuous piece, so cut that there is a slight bend at the middle. The share is pointed and is used bare in the plains, or in more stony regions is shod with iron. The pole is of 2 pieces joined end to end. The thicker end of the pole is notched, so that it may be attached firmly to the share. The whole plow is so light that it can be easily carried on a man's shoulder. These plows literally scratch the soil, as the Hebrew word implies. They do not turn over the ground as the modern implement does. The plowman guides the plow with one hand, and with the other sometimes goads the oxen, and at other times with the chisel end of his goad breaks away the lumps of earth or other material which impedes the progress of his plow. See <a href="../y/yoke.htm">YOKE</a>. In addition to the words which are found above, the following terms occur: `abhadh (literally, "to serve"), "worked" or "plowed" (<a href="/deuteronomy/21-4.htm">Deuteronomy 21:4</a>); palach (literally, "to break open," <a href="/psalms/141-7.htm">Psalm 141:7</a>). One special law is mentioned in connection with plowing, namely that an ox and an ass should not be yoked together (<a href="/deuteronomy/22-10.htm">Deuteronomy 22:10</a>), a prohibition which is utterly disregarded today. Oxen were principally used for plowing (<a href="/job/1-14.htm">Job 1:14</a>). Often several yokes of oxen followed each other plowing parallel furrows across the field, a sight still common on the plains of Syria (<a href="/1_kings/19-19.htm">1 Kings 19:19</a>). Plowing was done by bond servants (<a href="/luke/17-7.htm">Luke 17:7</a>; compare `abhadh, <a href="/deuteronomy/21-4.htm">Deuteronomy 21:4</a>). Plowing cannot be done before the rains (<a href="/jeremiah/14-4.htm">Jeremiah 14:4</a>); on the other hand the soil is too sticky to plow in the winter time (<a href="/proverbs/20-4.htm">Proverbs 20:4</a>). The law requiring one day of rest in every seven days included plowing time (<a href="/exodus/34-21.htm">Exodus 34:21</a>). Figurative: "The plowers plowed upon my back" typified deep affliction (<a href="/psalms/129-3.htm">Psalm 129:3</a>; compare <a href="/psalms/141-7.htm">Psalm 141:7</a>). "Plow iniquity" is urged in the sense of "plant iniquity." Doing evil was sure to bring evil consequences (<a href="/job/4-8.htm">Job 4:8</a>; compare <a href="/micah/3-12.htm">Micah 3:12</a>). As surely as planting comes after plowing, so surely will Yahweh carry out His decree of destruction (<a href="/isaiah/28-23.htm">Isaiah 28:23-25</a>). "Judah shall plow," i.e. become enslaved (<a href="/hosea/10-11.htm">Hosea 10:11</a>); compare "Foreigners shall be your plowmen" (<a href="/isaiah/61-5.htm">Isaiah 61:5</a>). "Will one plow there with oxen?" (<a href="/amos/6-12.htm">Amos 6:12</a>), "neither plowing nor harvest" (<a href="/genesis/45-6.htm">Genesis 45:6</a>) are figures of desolation. Zion plowed as a field, i.e. utterly destroyed (<a href="/jeremiah/26-18.htm">Jeremiah 26:18</a>). The plowman shall overtake the reaper, i.e. the soil shall be so fertile as to require no rest-typical of great abundance (<a href="/amos/9-13.htm">Amos 9:13</a>). No opportunity to plow because of lack of rain is a desolate picture of drought (<a href="/jeremiah/14-4.htm">Jeremiah 14:4</a>). As the plowman expects to share in the fruits of the harvest, so might an apostle expect his temporal needs to be provided for (<a href="/1_corinthians/9-10.htm">1 Corinthians 9:10</a>). "If ye had not plowed with my heifer," i.e. used my wife, was Samson's reply to those who had secured the answer to his riddle from her (<a href="/judges/14-18.htm">Judges 14:18</a>). "Beat their swords into plowshares" (or hoes) (<a href="/isaiah/2-4.htm">Isaiah 2:4</a> <a href="/micah/4-3.htm">Micah 4:3</a>) typified peace; "beat your plowshares into swords"-war (<a href="/joel/3-10.htm">Joel 3:10</a>). "Having put his hand to the plow, and looking back," i.e. longing for evil things when one has set his face toward doing what is right, unfits a man for the kingdom of God (<a href="/luke/9-62.htm">Luke 9:62</a>; compare <a href="/genesis/19-26.htm">Genesis 19:26</a> <a href="/philippians/3-13.htm">Philippians 3:13</a>).
