This concept appears in various contexts throughout Scripture, illustrating both literal and symbolic meanings. 1. Physical Piercing: · Crucifixion of Jesus: One of the most significant uses of the term "pierce" is in reference to the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. In the Gospel of John, the fulfillment of prophecy is highlighted when a Roman soldier pierces Jesus' side with a spear. <a href="/john/19-34.htm">John 19:34</a> states, "Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out." This act fulfilled the prophecy found in <a href="/zechariah/12-10.htm">Zechariah 12:10</a>, which is also referenced in <a href="/john/19-37.htm">John 19:37</a>: "They will look on the One they have pierced." · Prophetic Imagery: The piercing of Jesus is a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy, emphasizing the suffering Messiah. <a href="/zechariah/12-10.htm">Zechariah 12:10</a> prophesies, "Then they will look on Me, the One they have pierced. They will mourn for Him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for Him as one grieves for a firstborn son." 2. Metaphorical Piercing: · Piercing of the Heart and Soul: The Bible uses the concept of piercing metaphorically to describe the deep impact of words or actions on the heart and soul. <a href="/hebrews/4-12.htm">Hebrews 4:12</a> illustrates this with the Word of God: "For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any double-edged sword. It pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and intentions of the heart." This passage highlights the penetrating power of Scripture to discern and convict. · Emotional and Spiritual Wounding: In Proverbs, the tongue is described as having the power to pierce like a sword. <a href="/proverbs/12-18.htm">Proverbs 12:18</a> states, "There is one who speaks like the piercings of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing." This illustrates the potential for words to cause deep emotional and spiritual wounds, contrasting with the healing power of wise speech. 3. Symbolic and Eschatological Significance: · End Times Fulfillment: The piercing of Jesus holds eschatological significance, as it is associated with the future recognition of Christ by those who have rejected Him. <a href="/revelation/1-7.htm">Revelation 1:7</a> declares, "Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him—even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen." This passage underscores the ultimate acknowledgment of Christ's identity and the sorrow of those who have opposed Him. In summary, the concept of piercing in the Bible is rich with meaning, encompassing physical acts, metaphorical insights, and prophetic fulfillments. It serves as a powerful reminder of the suffering of Christ, the penetrating nature of God's Word, and the ultimate recognition of Jesus as Lord.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
