'Thumbs' in the Bible

But Adoni-Bezek fled; and they pursued after him, and caught him, and cut off his thumbs and his great toes.

Adoni-Bezek said, "Seventy kings, having their thumbs and their great toes cut off, gathered [their food] under my table: as I have done, so God has requited me." They brought him to Jerusalem, and he died there.
