Strong's Lexicon resen: Bridle, halter Original Word: רֶסֶן Part of Speech: Noun Masculine Transliteration: recen Pronunciation: reh'-sen Phonetic Spelling: (reh'-sen) Definition: a halter, the jaw Meaning: A halter, bridle, or metaphorically, the jaw. Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to curb or restrain. Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G2382 (ἱμάς, himas): Refers to a strap or thong, often used in the context of a whip or a binding strap, which can be related to the concept of control or restraint. • G5469 (φάτνη, phatnē): While primarily meaning a manger or feeding trough, it can also imply a place of control or containment, similar to how a bridle contains and directs an animal. These Greek terms, while not direct translations, share thematic elements with רֶסֶן in terms of control, restraint, and guidance, reflecting similar concepts in the New Testament context. Usage: The term רֶסֶן is used in the context of controlling or restraining, often referring to a physical bridle used for animals, particularly horses, to guide and control them. It can also metaphorically refer to the control or restraint of a person or nation. Context: רֶסֶן (resen) appears in the Hebrew Bible as a noun that signifies a tool of control, typically a bridle or halter used for animals. This term is used to illustrate the concept of guidance and restraint, both in a literal and metaphorical sense. In the Berean Standard Bible, רֶסֶן is used to depict the control exerted over animals, as well as the divine or authoritative control over nations or individuals. The imagery of a bridle is often employed to convey the idea of submission to guidance or authority, emphasizing the necessity of restraint and direction in life. For example, in the context of divine judgment or guidance, the imagery of a bridle can symbolize the control God has over the nations or His people, guiding them according to His will. This metaphor extends to the idea of moral and spiritual restraint, where individuals are encouraged to submit to divine guidance and control, much like a horse is guided by a bridle.
