To come out with tooth and eye/ to lose much/ suffer serious losses (originally:to be freed, said of a servant when his master caused him loss of tooth or eye)

Question: Does the matter arise from the damage to my property or my body (in the source, according to the law of the Maghrib, a slave who was hated was freed and went out of his service in his place and his master struck him and injured his tooth or eye. The source is in the names of the two: "And if a man strikes the eye of his slave or the eye of his maid and destroys it, "They shall cast it out under his eye. And if a tooth of his servant or his mother falls out in the search, they shall cast it out under his teeth").

("The owners of iron sheep come out with tooth and eye for a man, but not for a woman" - Yevamot 66b, and also: "The eye of his slave - a Canaanite slave, but a Hebrew slave does not go free by tooth and eye" - Rashi, Exodus 21:26, and also: "First - to whom will the holy flock be abandoned? / Perhaps they will turn the world upside down and come out with tooth and eye" - Tchernichovsky / Mordechai the Puppeteer, Fifth Poem, and also: "If not for Alexander, we would have come out with tooth and eye" - Agnon / In Our Youth and in Our Old Age, 233)
