It appears in passages discussing weeping and gnashing of teeth, symbolizing anguish or judgment (e.g., Matthew 8:12). This entry provides a comprehensive understanding of the Aramaic term שֵׁן (shen) as it appears in the Biblical texts, highlighting its literal and metaphorical significance within the scriptural narrative. Usage: This Aramaic term is used in the context of describing a tooth, often metaphorically or literally, within the scriptural texts. Context: The Aramaic word שֵׁן (shen) is primarily used to denote a tooth. In the Biblical context, teeth are often symbolic of strength, power, or the ability to consume and break down food. The term appears in the Aramaic portions of the Old Testament, particularly in the books of Daniel and Ezra, where Aramaic is used alongside Hebrew. The imagery of teeth can be found in various passages, often illustrating the ferocity or the destructive power of a beast or a nation. For example, in Daniel 7:5, the imagery of a beast with large teeth is used to convey its power and might. The metaphorical use of teeth in scripture can also extend to the idea of judgment or the breaking down of enemies.
