Ezekiel 27:26

26 Thy rowers have brought thee into great waters: the south wind hath broken thee in the heart of the sea.

Commentary

 

Bald

  
This print, from a medieval French manuscript, shows a relatively bald Elisha cursing the youths as the bears attack. Elijah rides a chariot overhead, having been taken up to heaven shortly before.

'A bald head' signifies the Word deprived of the natural sense, which is the sense of the letter.
