Strong's Lexicon katatoxeuó: To shoot arrows, to pierce with arrows Original Word: κατατοξεύω Word Origin: From the Greek prefix κατα- (kata-, meaning "down" or "against") and τοξεύω (toxeuó, meaning "to shoot arrows"). Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Hebrew equivalent often associated with the concept of shooting arrows is יָרָה (yarah, Strong's H3384), which means "to shoot" or "to throw." Another related term is חֵץ (chets, Strong's H2671), meaning "arrow." Usage: The verb κατατοξεύω (katatoxeuó) is used to describe the action of shooting arrows, often with the connotation of targeting or piercing. In a metaphorical sense, it can imply attacking or assailing someone with words or actions, akin to the imagery of arrows being used as instruments of war or judgment. Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Greek and Hebrew cultures, archery was a common military practice. Arrows were symbolic of swift and often unexpected judgment or attack. The imagery of arrows is frequently used in the Bible to convey messages of divine retribution, human conflict, or the piercing nature of words and actions. The use of archery metaphors would have been readily understood by ancient audiences familiar with warfare and hunting.
