Grind

"(Ex. 32:20; Deut. 9:21; Judg. 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 (Deut. 24:6; 2 Sam. 11:21) being movable and slightly "concave, the lower being stationary. The grinders mentioned" Eccl. 12:3 are the teeth. (See [252]MILL.)
