Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the base of ὀδυνάω (odynaō), which means "to cause pain" or "to suffer."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • H8127 שֵׁן (shen): This Hebrew word means "tooth" and is used in similar contexts in the Old Testament, both literally and metaphorically. It appears in passages such as Exodus 21:24, which also discusses the principle of "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth." Usage: The word ὀδούς appears in the New Testament in contexts that describe physical teeth, as well as in metaphorical expressions related to anguish or distress, such as "weeping and gnashing of teeth." Context: The Greek term ὀδούς is used in the New Testament to describe both the physical teeth of humans and animals and as a metaphor for intense emotional or spiritual anguish. In the Gospels, Jesus frequently uses the phrase "weeping and gnashing of teeth" to depict the sorrow and regret experienced by those who are excluded from the kingdom of God (e.g., Matthew 8:12, 13:42, 22:13, 24:51, 25:30; Luke 13:28). This expression conveys a vivid image of despair and remorse, often associated with judgment and separation from divine favor.
