Lamed (law-med) – an ox goad.
An ox also represented service. An ox under an agricultural economy was the greatest producer.
The ox, carrying all that great weight, quickly had their strength depleted, so they had a tendency to be lazy!
So, the ox goad! It had a sharp point so that when you jabbed him, he really moved!
Jab not enough to really hurt bad, but just enough to keep him going!
Now, what do you suppose keeps you going?!

TWOT entry.)
