'Neck' in the Bible
It will pour into Judah,flood over it, and sweep through,reaching up to the neck;and its spreading streamswill fill your entire land, Immanuel!
On that dayhis burden will fall from your shoulders,and his yoke from your neck.The yoke will be broken because of fatness.
His breath is like an overflowing torrentthat rises to the neck.He comes to sift the nations in a sieve of destructionand to put a bridle on the jaws of the peoplesto lead them astray.
Because I know that you are stubborn,and your neck is ironand your forehead bronze,
Stand up, shake the dust off yourself!Take your seat, Jerusalem.Remove the bonds from your neck,captive Daughter Zion.”
One slaughters an ox, one kills a man;one sacrifices a lamb, one breaks a dog’s neck;one offers a grain offering, one offers pig’s blood;one offers incense, one praises an idol—all these have chosen their waysand delight in their detestable practices.
