The term "swung" is not directly found in the Bible; however, the concept of swinging or moving something with force or momentum can be related to various biblical narratives and teachings. In Scripture, actions involving swinging or moving objects often symbolize strength, judgment, or divine intervention.

Symbolism of Swinging in Scripture

1. Judgment and Warfare: The act of swinging a sword or weapon is frequently associated with judgment and warfare in the Bible. For instance, in the context of divine judgment, the sword is often depicted as an instrument of God's justice. In Ezekiel 21:9-11 , the prophet speaks of a sword sharpened and polished, ready for the slaughter, symbolizing impending judgment: "Son of man, prophesy and say, ‘This is what the Lord says: A sword, a sword, sharpened and polished—sharpened for the slaughter, polished to flash like lightning!’"

2. Strength and Power: Swinging can also represent human strength and the power given by God to accomplish His purposes. In the account of David and Goliath, David swings his sling with precision and faith, defeating the giant Goliath (1 Samuel 17:49): "Then David reached into his bag, took out a stone, and slung it, striking the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground."

3. Divine Intervention: The imagery of swinging can also be seen in the context of divine intervention, where God acts decisively on behalf of His people. In Isaiah 30:32 , the Lord's hand is described as swinging in judgment against the Assyrians: "And every stroke of the appointed staff that the LORD brings down on them will be to the sound of tambourines and lyres; He will fight against them with brandished weapons."

Metaphorical Use

While the literal act of swinging is not extensively detailed in Scripture, the metaphorical use of swinging actions often conveys deeper spiritual truths. The swinging of a weapon or tool can symbolize the execution of God's will, the enactment of justice, or the demonstration of faith and courage by His servants.

Applications in Christian Life

In a spiritual sense, believers are called to wield the "sword of the Spirit," which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17). This metaphorical swinging of the sword represents the active and dynamic use of Scripture in spiritual warfare, personal growth, and the proclamation of the Gospel. Christians are encouraged to be strong and courageous, trusting in God's power to guide their actions and decisions.

Overall, while the specific term "swung" may not appear in the biblical text, the concept is woven into the fabric of biblical narratives, illustrating themes of strength, judgment, and divine intervention.1. (imp. & p. p.) of Swing.
