Neck:
used sometimes figuratively. To "lay down the neck" (Rom 16:4) is to hazard one's life. Threatenings of coming judgments are represented by the prophets by their laying bands upon the people's necks (Deu 28:48; Isa 10:27; Jer 27:2). Conquerors put their feet on the necks of their enemies as a sign of their subjection (Jos 10:24; 2Sa 22:41).
The Blue Letter Bible ministry and the BLB Institute hold to the historical, conservative Christian faith, which includes a firm belief in the inerrancy of Scripture. Since the text and audio content provided by BLB represent a range of evangelical traditions, all of the ideas and principles conveyed in the resource materials are not necessarily affirmed, in total, by this ministry.
