In Bible times, bows were sometimes mounted with copper, and a soldier was said to ‘ tread the bow, ’ perhaps bracing the bow with his foot so that he could string it.
Pada zaman Alkitab, busur kadang - kadang dilapisi tembaga, dan seorang prajurit dikatakan ” menginjak busur ”, kemungkinan menopang busur itu dengan kakinya supaya ia bisa meregangkan talinya.
