Ox Goad: Mentioned only in
(Judges 3:31) the weapon with which Shamgar (q.v.)
slew six hundred Philistines. "The ploughman still carries his goad,
a weapon apparently more fitted for the hand of the soldier than the
peaceful husbandman. The one I saw was of the 'oak of Bashan,' and
measured upwards of ten feet in length. At one end was an iron spear,
and at the other a piece of the same metal flattened. One can well
understand how a warrior might use such a weapon with effect in the
battle-field" (Porter's Syria, etc.).
