Meanings

  1. axe or pickaxe

    A wooden handle with an iron blade sharpened on one face, parallel to the handle, used for cutting down trees and shaping wood or stone

    Examples

    Deuteronomy 19:5 as when a person goes into the forest with his friend to cut wood, and his hand swings the axe to cut down the tree, and the iron head slips off the handle and strikes his friend so that he dies—he may flee to one of these cities and live.

    Deuteronomy 20:19 “When you besiege a city for a long time, to make war against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by swinging an axe against them; for you may eat from them, so you shall not cut them down. For is the tree of the field a human, that it should be besieged by you?

    1 Kings 6:7 The house, while it was being built, was built of stone finished at the quarry, and neither hammer, nor axe, nor any iron tool was heard in the house while it was being built.
