This word is used with the meaning of the last battle. In the 16th chapter of the Book of Revelation of Apostle John, we read the following: "And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. As the Lord said "Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!" And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon."

It is taken from the Bible, Chapter 32 of the Book of Exodus.

This expression is used with the following meaning – not to care about the development of one's own abilities, not to use them, ruin them.

The meaning of this expression is that allegedly children get punished for the actions of their parents. It is taken from Chapter 18 of the Book of Ezekiel: “The Lord’s word came to Ezekiel and said: What do you mean by this proverb of yours about the land of Israel: “When parents eat unripe grapes, the children’s teeth suffer”? As surely as I live, says the Lord God, no longer will you use this proverb in Israel! All lives are mine; the life of the parent and the life of the child belong to Me. Only the one who sins will die.”

This biblical expression is taken from the Book of Ezekiel, Chapter 16, verse 44. There are other such expressions also: “See the mother, take her daughter”; “The fruit does not fall far from the tree.” The Book of Ezekiel reflects one of the crucial episodes of the history of Israel. In Chapter 16, Israel is presented in the image of adulteress, who went with Egyptians, Assyrians, and Babylonians. The love of God toward people is often likened to the love between husband and wife. But unlike human marital relationships where a husband can send away or even hate his disloyal wife, God is patient and merciful.

In Chapter 20 of the Book of Prophet Ezekiel, God says, “I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant.” In the Bible, the notion of rod or staff is associated with the shepherd.
