Flesh-Hook

VIEW:38 DATA:01-04-2020

FLESH-HOOK.?The flesh-hook used by the priest?s servant at Shiloh was a three-pronged fork (1Sa_2:13), as were probably those of bronze and gold mentioned in connexion with the Tabernacle (Exo_27:3; Exo_38:3) and Temple (1Ch_28:17, 2Ch_4:16) respectively.

flesh?hook (מזלג, mazlēgh, and plural מזלגות, mizlāghōth): One of the implements used around the sacrificial altar. According to Divine direction given to Moses (Exo_27:3; Exo_38:3), it was to be made of brass, but later David felt impelled by ?the Spirit? or ?in his spirit? to determine that for use in the magnificent Temple of Solomon it should be made of gold (1Ch_28:17). But Huram made it, with other altar articles, of ?bright brass? (2Ch_4:16). In Samuel's time, it was made with three hook-shaped tines, and was used in taking out the priests' share of the meat offering (1Sa_2:13, 1Sa_2:14). With the other altar utensils, it was in the special charge of the Kohathites (Num_4:14). The hooks mentioned in Eze_40:43 were altogether different and for another purpose. See HOOK.

Flesh-Hook
(מִזְלֵג, mazleg', and, מִזְלָגָה, mizlagah'), an instrument used in the sacrificial services (1Sa_2:13-14; Exo_27:3; Exo_38:3; Num_4:14; 1Ch_28:17; 2Ch_4:16), probably a many-pronged fork, bent backward to draw away the flesh. The priests required such an instrument that, if the flesh burnt too quickly, they might draw it out, and again throw it into the flame or upon the coals. The implement in 1Sa_2:13-14 (where the first or masc. form of the above Heb. term is used), is stated to have been three-tined, and was apparently the ordinary fork with prongs for culinary purposes, such as was familiar likewise to the Greeks and Romans (κρέαγρα; see. Smith's Diet, of Class. Antis. s.v. Harpago).
