Looking up things...

For a character that I am writing about has a weapon that is a whip in each hand, so I thought that I would look up the biblical meaning of whip.  Here are the verses that I found on www.biblos.com  in order of books  :
Note: scourge, flogged, and flail are also the same thing as whipping.

Deuteronomy 22:18  ESV
   Then the elders of that city shall take the man and whip him, 

Joshua 23:13 NIV
   then you may be sure that the LORD your God will no longer drive out these nations before you. Instead, they will become snares and traps for you, whips on your backs and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land, which the LORD your God has given you.

Judges 8:7  ESV
   So Gideon said, “Well then, when the LORD has given Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, I will flail your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers.”

Job 5:21 , 9:23  KJV
   (5:21) Thou shalt be hid from the scourge of the tongue: neither shalt thou be afraid of destruction when it cometh.
   (9:23) If the scourge slay suddenly, he will laugh at the trial of the innocent.

Proverbs 26:3  NIV
   A whip for the horse, a halter for the donkey, and a rod for the backs of fools!

Isaiah 10:26 , 28:15 , 28:18 , 50:6   ESV
   (10:26) And the Lord of hosts will wield against them a whip, as when he struck Midian at the rock of Oreb. And his staff will be over the sea, and he will lift it as he did in Egypt.
   (28:15) Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement, when the overwhelming whip passes through it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
   (28:18) Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be beaten down by it.
   (50:6)  I offered my back to those who beat me, my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard; I did not hide my face from mocking and spitting.  (NIV)

Nahum 3:2  (KJV)
   The noise of a whip, and the noise of the rattling of the wheels, and of the prancing horses, and of the jumping chariots.

Matthew 10:17 , 20:19 , 23:34 , 27:26   (NIV)
   (10:17) "Be on your guard against men; they will hand you over to the local councils and flog you in their synagogues. 
   (20:19)  ....and will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. On the third day he will be raised to life!" 
   (23:34)  Therefore I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers. Some of them you will kill and crucify; others you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town.
   (27:26)  Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.

Mark 10:34 ,  13:9  , 15:15   NIV
   (10:34)  who will mock him and spit on him, flog him and kill him. Three days later he will rise." 
   (13:9)  "You must be on your guard. You will be handed over to the local councils and flogged in the synagogues. On account of me you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them.
   (15:15)  Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate released Barabbas to them. He had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.

John 2:15, 19:1   NIV
   (2:15)  So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple area, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.

1 Corinthians 4:21  NIV
   What do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a whip, or in love and with a gentle spirit?

One thing that I noticed is that whenever the whip is mentioned, it always has to deal with punishment.  Most of the time, it births from anger, either righteous or unrighteous.  Judgement is also carried out whenever the whip is mentioned or used.  I also see that it can mean a test, as hinted at in Joshua 23:13, but that I would have to find more information on.

If you do have more info on this matter, let me know in the comments below.
