Возможно, на широкое распространение метафоры повлияло евангельское изречение (Матф. 11:29-30): "...возьмите иго Мое на себя и научитесь от Меня, ибо Я кроток и смирен сердцем, и найдете покой душам вашим; ибо иго Мое благо, и бремя Мое легко" (греч. ἄρατε τòν ζυγόν μου ἐφ' ὑμα̃ς καὶ μάθετε ἀπ' ἐμου̃ ὅτι πραΰς εἰμι καὶ ταπεινòς τη̨̃ καρδία̨ καὶ εὑρήσετε ἀνάπαυσιν ται̃ς ψυχαι̃ς ὑμω̃ν ὁ γὰρ ζυγός μου χρηστòς καὶ τò φορτίον μου ἐλαφρόν ἐστιν)
