Gesenius' Hebrew and Chaldee Definition

חֵץ m. with suff. חִצּי pl. חִצּים.

(1) an arrow, from the root חָצַץ. בַּעֲלֵי־חִצִּים archers, Genesis 49:23. Arrows of God are

(a) lightnings, as Habak. 3:11, then

(b) poet. evils, calamities inflicted on men, Deuteronomy 32:42; Job 6:4; Psalms 38:3, 91:5 especially famine, Ezekiel 5:16.- Numbers 24:8, חִצָּיו יִמְחַץ “he will dash his arrows (into blood), comp. Psalms 68:24.

(2) a wound inflicted by an arrow, Job 34:6. (On the contrary Euripides, Iphig. Taur. 314, calls weapons τραύματα ἐπιόντα, flying wounds).

(3) חֵץ הַחֲנִית 1 Samuel 17:7 (כתיב) is the iron head of a spear; but in קרי and in similar passages, 2 Samuel 21:19; 1 Chronicles 20:5, there is found עֵץ wood, the shaft of a spear; and it is this only which suits the context. For it is a mistake to suppose that חֵץ can have the same meaning, and denote the wooden part of a spear.
