The imagery of teeth is used to convey various spiritual and moral lessons throughout the Scriptures. Literal References: 1. Physical Description and Health: Teeth are mentioned in the context of physical health and beauty. In the Song of Solomon, the bride's teeth are described as a mark of beauty and perfection: "Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn sheep coming up from the washing, each one bearing twins, and not one has lost her young" (<a href="/songs/4-2.htm">Song of Solomon 4:2</a>). This imagery highlights the importance of teeth in the perception of physical attractiveness and health. 2. Diet and Sustenance: Teeth are essential for eating and are thus associated with sustenance and survival. In the context of dietary laws and practices, the ability to chew food is implicit in the consumption of various foods mentioned in the Bible. Metaphorical and Symbolic References: 1. Strength and Power: Teeth are often used metaphorically to represent strength and power. In the book of Joel, the destructive power of locusts is described using the imagery of teeth: "For a nation has invaded My land, powerful and without number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and its fangs are those of a lioness" (<a href="/joel/1-6.htm">Joel 1:6</a>). This vivid imagery underscores the devastating impact of the locusts. 2. Judgment and Suffering: Teeth are also associated with judgment and suffering. In the New Testament, Jesus uses the phrase "weeping and gnashing of teeth" to describe the anguish and regret of those who are cast out of the kingdom of heaven: "And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth" (<a href="/matthew/13-42.htm">Matthew 13:42</a>). This expression conveys the intense emotional and spiritual torment experienced by those who face divine judgment. 3. Hostility and Aggression: The Psalms and other poetic books often use teeth to symbolize hostility and aggression. For example, in <a href="/psalms/57-4.htm">Psalm 57:4</a>, David describes his enemies as fierce and threatening: "My soul is among the lions; I lie down among ravenous beasts whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are sharp swords" . This metaphor highlights the danger and malice posed by his adversaries. 4. Divine Protection and Deliverance: Conversely, the breaking of teeth is sometimes used to symbolize God's deliverance and protection from enemies. In <a href="/psalms/3-7.htm">Psalm 3:7</a>, David prays for deliverance from his foes: "Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked" . Here, the breaking of teeth signifies the defeat and disempowerment of the wicked. Cultural and Historical Context: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, teeth were often associated with vitality and life force. The loss of teeth could symbolize weakness or the approach of death. This cultural understanding is reflected in the biblical text, where teeth are sometimes used to convey themes of mortality and the transient nature of human life. Overall, the biblical references to teeth serve as powerful symbols that communicate a range of spiritual truths, from the beauty and strength of God's creation to the consequences of sin and the hope of divine deliverance.<a name="top" id="top"></a><div class="vheading2">Topical Bible Verses</div><a href="/proverbs/10-26.htm">Proverbs 10:26</a> As vinegar to the teeth, and as smoke to the eyes, so is the sluggard to them that send him.

Figurative: The word is used as a synonym of reckless strength and cruelty.JAW; JAWBONE; JAW TEETHjo, jo'-bon (lechi, "cheek (bone)," "jaw (bone)"): In <a href="/job/41-2.htm">Job 41:2</a>, the Revised Version (British and American) gives "pierce his jaw through with a hook" for the King James Version "bore his jaw through with a thorn" (see HOOK; LEVIATHAN). <a href="/psalms/22-15.htm">Psalm 22:15</a>, "My tongue cleaveth to my jaws (malqoach)," is descriptive of the effect of a fever or physical torture, a dryness and a horrible clamminess. Malqochayim is an ancient dual form meaning the two jaws, and, metaphorically, malqoach indicates that which is caught between the jaws, booty, prey, including captives (<a href="/numbers/31-11.htm">Numbers 31:11, 26, 32</a> <a href="/isaiah/49-24.htm">Isaiah 49:24 f</a>).

Let the wicked be deprived of their ability for evil; let them at least be disabled from mischief. Septuagint reads "God shall break," etc. (Compare Edmund Prys's Metrical Paraphrase of the Psalms, in the place cited.) "A bridle. in the jaws of the peoples" (<a href="/isaiah/30-28.htm">Isaiah 30:28</a>; compare <a href="/2_kings/19-28.htm">2 Kings 19:28</a>) is descriptive of the ultimate check of the Assyrian power at Jerusalem, "as when a bridle or lasso is thrown upon the jaws of a wild animal when you wish to catch and tame him" (G.A. Smith Isaiah, I, 235). Compare <a href="/ezekiel/29-4.htm">Ezekiel 29:4</a> (concerning Pharaoh); 38:4 (concerning Gog), "I will put hooks in (into) thy jaws." (2) Of human labor and trials, with a reference to the Divine gentleness: "I was to them as they that lift up the yoke on their jaws" (<a href="/hosea/11-4.htm">Hosea 11:4</a>), or `take the yoke off their jaws,' as the humane driver eased the yoke with his hands or `lifted it forward from neck to the jaws'; or it may perhaps refer to the removal of the yoke in the evening, when work is over.
