It appears in various contexts, both literal and metaphorical, throughout the Scriptures.<br><br>1. <b>Samson and the Jawbone of a Donkey</b>: One of the most notable references to a jaw in the Bible is found in the account of Samson. In <a href="/judges/15-15.htm">Judges 15:15</a>, Samson finds "a fresh jawbone of a donkey" and uses it as a weapon to slay a thousand Philistines. This event highlights the extraordinary strength given to Samson by God and serves as a testament to divine empowerment. The passage reads: "He found the fresh jawbone of a donkey, reached out his hand and took it, and struck down a thousand men with it." This act of deliverance underscores the theme of God using the weak things of the world to confound the mighty.<br><br>2. <b>Metaphorical Use</b>: The jaw is also used metaphorically in the Bible to describe God's power over His enemies. In <a href="/job/29-17.htm">Job 29:17</a>, Job speaks of breaking "the fangs of the wicked" and snatching "the prey from their teeth," illustrating the idea of divine justice and protection. Similarly, in <a href="/psalms/3-7.htm">Psalm 3:7</a>, David prays for deliverance from his enemies, saying, "Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked." Here, the jaw symbolizes the strength and aggression of the wicked, which God is able to dismantle.<br><br>3. <b>Symbol of Judgment</b>: The jaw is sometimes used as a symbol of judgment. In <a href="/hosea/11-4.htm">Hosea 11:4</a>, God speaks of leading Israel with "cords of kindness, with ropes of love," and removing "the yoke from their necks," bending down to feed them. This imagery contrasts with the idea of a yoke or bridle in the jaw, which is often used to control or subdue. The removal of such a yoke signifies liberation and divine compassion.<br><br>4. <b>Prophetic Imagery</b>: In <a href="/ezekiel/29-4.htm">Ezekiel 29:4</a>, God declares judgment against Pharaoh, king of Egypt, saying, "But I will put hooks in your jaws and make the fish of your streams cling to your scales. I will pull you up from the midst of your streams, with all the fish clinging to your scales." This vivid imagery portrays God's sovereignty and ability to control even the most powerful rulers, using the jaw as a point of capture and subjugation.<br><br>5. <b>Cultural and Historical Context</b>: In ancient Near Eastern culture, the jaw was often seen as a symbol of strength and ferocity. Animals with powerful jaws, such as lions and bears, were feared and respected. This cultural understanding is reflected in the biblical text, where the jaw often represents power, both human and divine.<br><br>In summary, the concept of the jaw in the Bible serves as a multifaceted symbol, representing strength, divine intervention, judgment, and deliverance. Whether used literally or metaphorically, it underscores the themes of God's power and sovereignty over creation and His ability to protect and deliver His people.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

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>).<br><br>Figurative:<br><br>(1) Of the power of the wicked, with a reference to Divine restraint and discipline: "I brake the jaws (Hebrew "great teeth") of the unrighteous" (<a href="/job/29-17.htm">Job 29:17</a> <a href="/proverbs/30-14.htm">Proverbs 30:14</a>); compare <a href="/psalms/58-6.htm">Psalm 58:6</a>, "Break out the great teeth (malta`oth, "jaw teeth") of the young lions, O Yahweh." 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."<br><br>(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.<br><br>Jawbone (<a href="/judges/15-15.htm">Judges 15:15</a>).<br><br>See <a href="../r/ramath-lehi.htm">RAMATH-LEHI</a>.<br><br>M.
