The process of grinding involved the use of millstones, which were tools used to crush and pulverize grains such as wheat and barley into flour. This activity is frequently mentioned in the Bible, symbolizing both the routine of daily life and deeper spiritual truths.<br><br><b>Old Testament References</b><br><br>Grinding is first mentioned in the context of daily sustenance. In <a href="/exodus/11-5.htm">Exodus 11:5</a>, the Lord speaks of the impending plague on Egypt, stating, "And every firstborn son in the land of Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne to the firstborn of the servant girl who is at her hand mill, and all the firstborn of the cattle." Here, grinding is depicted as a common task performed by servant girls, highlighting its role in household duties.<br><br>In <a href="/judges/16-21.htm">Judges 16:21</a>, the account of Samson provides a poignant image of grinding as a symbol of subjugation and humiliation. After being captured by the Philistines, Samson is bound and forced to grind grain in prison: "Then the Philistines seized him, gouged out his eyes, and took him down to Gaza. Binding him with bronze shackles, they set him to grinding grain in the prison." This act of grinding in captivity underscores Samson's fall from strength and freedom to weakness and bondage.<br><br><b>New Testament References</b><br><br>In the New Testament, grinding is used metaphorically to convey the suddenness of the coming of the Kingdom of God. In <a href="/matthew/24-41.htm">Matthew 24:41</a>, Jesus describes the unexpected nature of His return: "Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left." This passage illustrates the separation that will occur at the end times, using the familiar image of women grinding at the mill to emphasize the normalcy of daily life interrupted by divine intervention.<br><br><b>Symbolism and Spiritual Lessons</b><br><br>Grinding in the Bible often symbolizes the labor and toil associated with human life. It serves as a reminder of the curse pronounced upon Adam in <a href="/genesis/3-19.htm">Genesis 3:19</a>, where God declares, "By the sweat of your brow you will eat your bread, until you return to the ground, because out of it were you taken; for dust you are, and to dust you shall return." The act of grinding, therefore, is emblematic of the effort required to sustain life in a fallen world.<br><br>Moreover, grinding can represent the refining and purifying processes that believers undergo. Just as grain is crushed and refined to produce flour, so too are individuals shaped and molded through trials and tribulations to grow in faith and character. This theme is echoed in passages such as <a href="/james/1-2.htm">James 1:2-4</a>, which encourages believers to "consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you encounter trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance."<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Context</b><br><br>In ancient Israel, grinding was typically done using a pair of millstones. The upper stone, known as the "rider," was moved back and forth over the lower stationary stone, crushing the grain placed between them. This labor-intensive process was usually performed by women, as indicated in various biblical passages. The sound of grinding was a familiar and comforting aspect of daily life, and its absence was often associated with desolation and judgment, as seen in <a href="/jeremiah/25-10.htm">Jeremiah 25:10</a>: "Moreover, I will banish from them the sound of joy and gladness, the voices of the bride and bridegroom, the sound of the millstones and the light of the lamp."<br><br>In summary, the concept of grinding in the Bible encompasses both the practical aspects of daily life and profound spiritual truths. It serves as a metaphor for labor, refinement, and the unexpected nature of divine intervention, while also providing insight into the cultural practices of ancient times.<a name="amt" id="amt"></a><div class="vheading2">ATS Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Grind</span><p>See <a href="../c/corn.htm">CORN</a>. </p><a name="eas" id="eas"></a><div class="vheading2">Easton's Bible Dictionary</div>(<a href="/exodus/32-20.htm">Exodus 32:20</a>; <a href="/deuteronomy/9-21.htm">Deuteronomy 9:21</a>; <a href="/judges/16-21.htm">Judges 16:21</a>), to crush small (Hebrews tahan); to oppress the poor (<a href="/isaiah/3-5.htm">Isaiah 3:5</a>).
