'Iron' in the Bible
He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.
The man shapes iron into a cutting tool and does his work over the coals, fashioning it with hammers and working it with his strong arm. He also gets hungry and his strength fails; he drinks no water and becomes weary.
“I will go before you and make the rough places smooth;I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.
“Because I know that you are obstinate,And your neck is an iron sinewAnd your forehead bronze,
“Instead of bronze I will bring gold,And instead of iron I will bring silver,And instead of wood, bronze,And instead of stones, iron.And I will make peace your administratorsAnd righteousness your overseers.
