Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - Strong's Greek 3599: ὀδούς (odous) - tooth Usage: The Hebrew word "shen" primarily refers to a tooth, often used in both literal and metaphorical contexts in the Hebrew Bible. Literally, it denotes the physical teeth of humans and animals. Metaphorically, it can symbolize strength, power, or the act of devouring and destruction. Cultural and Historical Background: 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.
