From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Arrows
     At first made of reeds, and then of wood tipped with iron.
     Arrows are sometimes figuratively put for lightning (Deut.
     32:23, 42; Ps. 7:13; 18:14; 144:6; Zech. 9:14). They were used
     in war as well as in the chase (Gen. 27:3; 49:23). They were
     also used in divination (Ezek. 21:21).


     
       The word is frequently employed as a symbol of calamity or
     disease inflicted by God (Job 6:4; 34:6; Ps. 38:2; Deut. 32:23.
     Comp. Ezek. 5:16), or of some sudden danger (Ps. 91:5), or
     bitter words (Ps. 64:3), or false testimony (Prov. 25:18).
