Flesh-Hook . The flesh-hook used by the priest’s servant at Shiloh was a three-pronged fork ( 1 Samuel 2:13 ), as were probably those of bronze and gold mentioned in connexion with the Tabernacle ( Exodus 27:3; Exodus 38:3 ) and Temple ( 1 Chronicles 28:17 , 2 Chronicles 4:16 ) respectively.

( מִזְלֵג , Mazleg', and, מִזְלָגָה , Mizlagah'), an instrument used in the sacrificial services ( 1 Samuel 2:13-14; Exodus 27:3; Exodus 38:3; Numbers 4:14; 1 Chronicles 28:17; 2 Chronicles 4:16), probably a many-pronged Fork, bent backward to draw away the flesh. The priests required such an instrument that, if the flesh burnt too quickly, they might draw it out, and again throw it into the flame or upon the coals. The implement in 1 Samuel 2:13-14 (where the first or masc. form of the above Heb. term is used), is stated to have been three-tined, and was apparently the ordinary fork with prongs for culinary purposes, such as was familiar likewise to the Greeks and Romans ( Κρέαγρα ; see.

flesh´hook ( מזלג , mazlēgh , and plural מזלגות , mizlāghōth ): One of the implements used around the sacrificial altar. According to Divine direction given to Moses ( Exodus 27:3; Exodus 38:3 ), it was to be made of brass, but later David felt impelled by "the Spirit" or "in his spirit" to determine that for use in the magnificent Temple of Solomon it should be made of gold ( 1 Chronicles 28:17 ). But Huram made it, with other altar articles, of "bright brass" ( 2 Chronicles 4:16 ). In Samuel's time, it was made with three hook-shaped tines, and was used in taking out the priests' share of the meat offering ( 1 Samuel 2:13 , 1 Samuel 2:14 ). With the other altar utensils, it was in the special charge of the Kohathites ( Numbers 4:14 ). The hooks mentioned in Ezekiel 40:43 were altogether different and for another purpose. See Hook .
