Eye of a needle
The term "eye of a needle" is used as a metaphor for a very narrow opening. It occurs several times throughout the Talmud. The New Testament quotes Jesus as saying that "it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God".
The eye of a sewing needle is the part formed into a loop for pulling thread, located at the end opposite from the point.
