Topical Lexicon Word Origin: This word is of Aramaic origin, used in the context of the Hebrew Bible.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • The Greek equivalent for "clay" in the New Testament is often represented by the word "πηλός" (Strong's Greek Number 4081), which also refers to clay or mud, used in contexts such as the healing of the blind man in John 9:6, where Jesus makes clay with His saliva to anoint the man's eyes. Usage: The word "טִין" is used in the Aramaic portions of the Hebrew Bible, specifically in the context of describing clay as a material. Context: • The term "טִין" appears in the Aramaic sections of the Old Testament, notably in the book of Daniel. In Daniel 2:41-43, the word is used to describe the composition of the feet of the statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream, which were made partly of iron and partly of clay. This imagery symbolizes a divided kingdom, as the mixture of iron and clay represents strength and fragility coexisting. The use of clay in this context highlights the impermanence and weakness of human kingdoms compared to the eternal kingdom of God. The Berean Standard Bible translates this passage as follows: "And just as you saw the feet and toes were partly of potter’s clay and partly of iron, so this will be a divided kingdom; yet it will have some of the strength of iron, just as you saw the iron mixed with clay."
