However, Greek terms related to teeth or grinding, such as ὀδούς (odous, Strong's Greek 3599) for "tooth," may be considered in broader lexical studies. Usage: The term מַלְתָּעָה is used in the context of describing teeth, specifically referring to the molars or back teeth that are used for grinding food. Context: The Hebrew word מַלְתָּעָה appears in the Old Testament to describe the molars or back teeth, which are essential for the process of grinding food. This term is found in the context of descriptions of physical attributes or metaphorical language. In the ancient Near Eastern context, teeth were often used symbolically to represent strength and the ability to consume or destroy. The molars, being the strongest teeth, were particularly significant in this symbolism. The Berean Standard Bible translates this term in a way that reflects its literal and metaphorical meanings, emphasizing the importance of these teeth in both physical sustenance and symbolic representation.
