with reference to the sword, is the rendering,of פֶּה , peh, mouth (like στόμα, Luke 21:24; Hebrews 11:34), or fem. פֵּיָה, peyah' (Judges 3:16); also פָּנַים panim', face (Ecclesiastes 10:10); poet. צוּר , tsur, a rock, hence sharpness (Psalms 89:43): elsewhere, in the sense of brink or margin; it corresponds to שָׁפָה saphah', ip; and to קָצָה atsah', קָצֶה, kastek', or קצְוֶה kitsveh', extremity (Exodus 28:7; Exodus 39:4; Exodus 13:20; Exodus 21:5; Exodus 36:12; Numbers 33:6; Numbers 33:37; Joshua 13:27; Psalms 39:4). To "set on edge" is an inaccurate rendering (Jeremiah 31:29-30; Ezekiel 18:2) of קָהָה , kahah, to be blunt (as in Ecclesiastes 10:10). (See SWORD).
