Literally, it denotes the physical teeth of humans and animals. Metaphorically, it can symbolize strength, power, or the act of devouring and destruction.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern culture, teeth were often associated with strength and vitality. The loss of teeth could symbolize weakness or defeat. In the context of sacrificial laws and dietary practices, the condition of an animal's teeth could determine its suitability for offerings. Teeth were also used metaphorically in wisdom literature to describe the destructive power of words or actions.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>(Aramaic) corresponding to <a href="/hebrew/8127.htm">shen</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>tooth<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>teeth (3).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">שְׁנָא</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>change</b></font> (see Biblical Hebrew I. <font class="hebrew2">שׁנה</font>);
