Strong's Lexicon tothach: Weapon, battering ram Original Word: תּוֹתָח Word Origin: Derived from an unused root meaning to beat or hammer Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent for a battering ram or siege engine is not directly listed in Strong's Concordance, as the concept is more culturally specific to the Hebrew context. However, related Greek terms might include those for weapons or instruments of war, such as "ὅπλον" (hoplon - G3696), meaning weapon or tool. Usage: The Hebrew word "tothach" refers to a weapon, specifically a battering ram used in ancient warfare. It is a tool designed to break through fortifications, such as city walls or gates, during a siege. The term is used to describe the physical instrument of war that was employed to breach defenses. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Near Eastern warfare, battering rams were crucial siege instruments. They were typically large beams, often capped with metal, and were used to apply force to structures. The use of battering rams is well-documented in ancient military campaigns, and they were a symbol of the might and determination of an attacking army. The construction and deployment of such siege engines required significant resources and manpower, reflecting the seriousness of a military campaign.
