Besides its ordinary sense, used for any overwhelming power, earthly (Jer_50:23, "the hammer of the whole earth," Babylon, as Martel, "little hammer," was a title of the Frank king) or spiritual (Jer_23:29, "is not My word like a hammer that breaketh the rock in pieces?".) Compare Nah_2:1 margin

ham?ẽr: The Hebrew מקּבת, maḳḳebheth, occurs in Jdg_4:21, where it refers to the mallet (probably wooden) used to drive tent-pins into the ground. The same word occurs in 1Ki_6:7; Isa_44:12; Jer_10:4 as applied to a workman's hammer. פטּישׁ, paṭṭı̄sh (compare Arabic, faṭı̄s), occurs in Isa_41:7; Jer_23:29; Jer_50:23. It was probably a blacksmith's hammer or heavy hammer used for breaking rock. There is doubt about the rendering of Jdg_5:26, where the word, הלמוּת, halmūth, occurs. From the context, the instrument mentioned was probably not a hammer. In Psa_74:6, כּילף, kēlāph, is better translated ?axes,? not ?hammers.? See TOOLS.

1Ki_6:7 (c) By this figure the Lord is informing us that the house of GOD is to be a divine institution, built in the quiet of His presence, and because of the still small voice teaching us. There is to be no dissension nor quarreling in regard to it. The Lord Himself makes each living stone a part of the building, and then He brings us together to form the local church made up of sinners already saved by grace. GOD's church is not a product of man's ideas.
Jer_23:29 (a) The Word of GOD is thus represented. There are many kinds of hammers such as the hammer of the blacksmith, the goldsmith, the carpenter, the stone mason, et cetera. Some are for heavy, rough work, others are for fine delicate work; so the Scriptures are used for every kind of need or purpose in life.
Jer_50:23 (a) This type is used to describe Babylon. GOD picked out the armies of Babylon to punish and to destroy the nations of the earth. He used Babylon to whip Israel and Judah. GOD has a perfect right to choose anyone He pleases, saved or unsaved, to carry out His purposes and His plans.

Hammer
an indispensable tool designated by several Heb. terms:
1. Patiish' (פִּטַּושׁ, connected etymologically with πατάσσω, to strike), which was used by the gold-beater (Isa_41:7, Sept. σφῦρα) to overlay with silver and smooth the surface of the image, as well as by the quarryman (Jer_23:29, Sept. πέλυζ); metaphorically of Babylon as a destructive agent (Jeremiah 1, 23, Sept. σφῦρα). This seems to have been the heaviest instrument of the kind for hard blows.
2. Makkabah' (מִקָּבָח), properly a tool for hollowing, hence a stonecutter's mallet (1Ki_6:7), and generally any workman's hammer (Jdg_4:21 [where the form is מִקֶּבֶתSmakke'beth]; Isa_44:12; Jer_10:4). In Isaiah the Sept. uses τἐρετρον, a gimlet, in all the rest σφῦρα; Vulg. malleus. SEE MACCABAEUS.
3. Halmuth' (הִלַמוּת); used only in Jdg_5:26; Sept. σφῦρα, Vulg. mallei [q. d. הלמוֹת]; and then with the addition of the word workmen's by way of explanation, as this is a poetical word, used instead of the preceding more prosaic term. The pins of the tent of the Bedouin are generally of wood, and are driven into the ground by a mallet, which is probably the hammer referred to in this passage (Thomson, Land and Book, 2, 149). Dr. Hackett observes (Amer. ed. of Smith's Dict. s.v.) that it is spoken of as the hammer,' being the one kept for that purpose; but the Hebrew term used in Judges 5, 26 (to which he refers) is without the art., which is employed, however, with that found in Jdg_4:21. SEE NAIL.
4. A kind of hammer, named mappets' (מִפֵּוֹ), Jer_51:20 (A.V. battle-axe), or mephits' (מֵפַיוֹ), Pro_25:18 (A.V. maul), was used as a weapon of war.
5. Only in the plur. (כֵּילִפּוֹת, keylappoth', Sept. λαξυτήρια Vulg. ascice), a poetic term equivalent to the preceding (Psa_74:6). SEE HANDICRAFT.
