Smith's Bible Dictionary

Smith

[HANDICRAFT]

ATS Bible Dictionary

Smith

An artificer in brass, iron, etc., first mentioned in Genesis 4:22. The art of the smith is one of the essential of civilization; and without it a nation was peculiarly defenseless in time of war, Jud 5:8 1 Samuel 13:19-22 2 Kings 24:14. Workers in silver and in copper were distinguished from each other, Acts 19:24 2 Timothy 4:14.

Easton's Bible Dictionary

The Hebrews were not permitted by the Philistines in the days of Samuel to have a smith amongst them, lest they should make them swords and spears (1 Samuel 13:19). Thus the Philistines sought to make their conquest permanent (Comp. 2 Kings 24:16).

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

1. (n.) One who forges with the hammer; one who works in metals; as, a blacksmith, goldsmith, silversmith, and the like.

2. (n.) One who makes or effects anything.

3. (n.) To beat into shape; to forge.
