International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [2]

( שׁד , shadh , שׁד , shōdh , "breast" ( Ezekiel 23:21 ); μαστός , mastós , "the breast" (Luke 11:27; Luke 23:29; Revelation 1:13 )): The English word, which goes back to Middle English "pappe" (see Skeat, Concise Etymological Dictionary of the English Language , 327) and is now obsolete, has been replaced in the Revised Version (British and American) by "breast." The Hebrew word signifies the "female breast"; the Greek word has a wider signification, including the male chest.
