Strong's Lexicon brugmos: Gnashing Original Word: βρυγμός Part of Speech: Noun, Masculine Transliteration: brugmos Pronunciation: broog-MOS Phonetic Spelling: (broog-mos') Definition: a grinding or gnashing. Meaning: The term βρυγμός refers to the act of gnashing or grinding of teeth, often associated with intense emotion such as anger, pain, or anguish. Word Origin: Derived from the verb βρύχω (brýchō), meaning "to gnash" or "to grind." Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The concept of gnashing teeth is also found in the Old Testament, though not directly linked to a single Hebrew word equivalent to βρυγμός. However, similar expressions of anguish and anger can be seen in passages like Psalm 112:10, where the wicked "gnash their teeth" in frustration. The Hebrew verb חָרַק (charak) is often used in these contexts, conveying a similar sense of grinding or gnashing. Usage: In the New Testament, βρυγμός is used to describe the gnashing of teeth as a reaction to extreme distress or torment, particularly in eschatological contexts. Context: The term βρυγμός appears in several passages within the New Testament, primarily in the context of judgment and the final separation of the righteous from the wicked. It is often paired with weeping, as seen in the phrase "weeping and gnashing of teeth," which signifies a state of utter despair and regret. This expression is used by Jesus in the Gospels to describe the fate of those who are cast out from the kingdom of God. In Matthew 8:12, Jesus warns, "But the sons of the kingdom will be cast into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Similarly, in Matthew 13:42, He describes the fate of the wicked: "And they will throw them into the fiery furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." The imagery of gnashing teeth conveys a powerful sense of remorse and suffering, emphasizing the consequences of rejecting God's salvation. It serves as a stark reminder of the reality of divine judgment and the eternal separation from God's presence for those who do not follow His ways.
