Grind:
(Exd 32:20; Deu 9:21; Jdg 16:21), to crush small (Heb. tahan); to oppress the poor (Isa 3:5). The hand-mill was early used by the Hebrews (Num 11:8). It consisted of two stones, the upper (Deu 24:6; 2Sa 11:21) being movable and slightly concave, the lower being stationary. The grinders mentioned Ecc 12:3 are the teeth. (See MILL.)

Grind:
signifies "to grind at the mill," Mat 24:41; Luk 17:35. The Sept. has both the earlier form aleo, Isa 47:2, and the later one aletho, used in the Koine period, Num 11:8; Jdg 16:21; Ecc 12:3, 4.

Grind:
primarily of animal sounds, "to chirp, cry," etc., is used of grinding the teeth, Mar 9:18, RV, "grindeth" (AV, "gnasheth with").
See GNASH.
Note: In Mat 21:44; Luk 20:18, likmao, "to winnow," as of grain, by throwing it up against the wind, to scatter the chaff and straw, hence has the meaning "to scatter," as chaff or dust, and is translated "will scatter... as dust," RV (AV, "will grind... to powder"). In the Sept. it is used of being scattered by the wind or of sifting (cp. Amo 9:9). The use of the verb in the papyri writings suggests the meaning, "to ruin, destroy" (Deissmann).
