In the context of the New Testament, it often refers to the heavy, burdensome nature of a millstone, which was used for grinding grain. The imagery of a millstone is frequently employed to convey the idea of a significant weight or burden, often in a metaphorical sense.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient times, millstones were essential tools for daily life, used to grind grain into flour. They were typically large, heavy stones that required significant effort to operate. The millstone was a common household item, and its weight made it a powerful symbol in literature and teaching. In Jewish culture, the millstone was sometimes used metaphorically to represent judgment or punishment, as its weight could be overwhelming.<div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 3457: μυλικός</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">μυλικός</span></span>, <span class="greek2">μυλικη</span>, <span class="greek2">μυλικον</span> (<span class="greek2">μύλη</span> a mill), <span class="accented">belonging to a mill</span>: <a href="/interlinear/mark/9-42.htm">Mark 9:42</a> <span class="manuref">R</span> <span class="manuref">G</span>;
