Easton
At first made of reeds, and then of wood tipped with iron. Arrows are sometimes figuratively put for lightning (De 32:23,42; Ps 7:13; 18:14; 144:6; Zec 9:14). They were used in war as well as in the chase (Ge 27:3; 49:23). They were also used in divination (Eze 21:21).
The word is frequently employed as a symbol of calamity or disease inflicted by God (Job 6:4; 34:6; Ps 38:2; De 32:23. Comp. Eze 5:16), or of some sudden danger (Ps 91:5), or bitter words (Ps 64:3), or false testimony (Pr 25:18).
