(Exodus 32:20; Deuteronomy 9:21; Judges 16:21 ), to crush small (Heb. tahan); to oppress the poor (Isaiah 3:5 ). The hand-mill was early used by the Hebrews (Numbers 11:8 ). It consisted of two stones, the upper (Deuteronomy 24:6; 2 Samuel 11:21 ) being movable and slightly concave, the lower being stationary. The grinders mentioned Ecclesiastes 12:3 are the teeth.
