'Neck' in the Bible

and by his hand have the Tekoites strengthened, and their honourable ones have not brought in their neck to the service of their Lord.

'And they and our fathers have acted proudly, and harden their neck, and have not hearkened unto Thy commands,

yea, they refuse to hearken, and have not remembered Thy wonders that Thou hast done with them, and harden their neck and appoint a head, to turn back to their service, in their rebellion; and Thou art a God of pardons, gracious, and merciful, long-suffering, and abundant in kindness, and hast not forsaken them.

And testifiedst against them, that thou mightest bring them again unto thy law: yet they dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, but sinned against thy judgments, (which if a man do, he shall live in them;) and withdrew the shoulder, and hardened their neck, and would not hear.
