Objects in the Bible often serve as instruments of divine action, symbols of spiritual truths, or representations of God's covenant with His people. Objects as Instruments of Divine Action Throughout the Scriptures, God uses physical objects to accomplish His purposes and demonstrate His power. For example, in the book of Exodus, God instructs Moses to use his staff to perform miracles, such as parting the Red Sea (<a href="/exodus/14-16.htm">Exodus 14:16</a>). The staff becomes an object through which God's power is manifested, serving as a tangible sign of His presence and authority. Similarly, in the New Testament, Jesus uses objects in His miracles. In <a href="/john/9-6.htm">John 9:6</a>, Jesus makes mud with His saliva and applies it to the eyes of a blind man, resulting in the man's healing. This act demonstrates the use of a simple object as a means of divine intervention and healing. Objects as Symbols of Spiritual Truths Objects in the Bible often carry symbolic meanings that convey deeper spiritual truths. The Ark of the Covenant, for instance, is a sacred object that represents God's covenant with Israel and His presence among His people. It is described in detail in <a href="/exodus/25-10.htm">Exodus 25:10-22</a> and serves as a physical reminder of God's promises and His holiness. Another example is the use of bread and wine in the Lord's Supper, as instituted by Jesus during the Last Supper (<a href="/matthew/26-26.htm">Matthew 26:26-28</a>). These objects symbolize the body and blood of Christ, serving as a memorial of His sacrifice and a means of spiritual communion with Him. Objects as Representations of God's Covenant Certain objects in the Bible are directly associated with God's covenantal relationships. The rainbow, for instance, is given as a sign of God's covenant with Noah and all living creatures, promising that He will never again destroy the earth with a flood (<a href="/genesis/9-12.htm">Genesis 9:12-17</a>). The rainbow serves as a perpetual reminder of God's faithfulness and mercy. Circumcision is another object-related practice that signifies God's covenant with Abraham and his descendants (<a href="/genesis/17-10.htm">Genesis 17:10-11</a>). It is a physical mark that sets apart the people of Israel as belonging to God and is a sign of their commitment to His covenant. Objects in Worship and Idolatry While objects can be used for holy purposes, the Bible also warns against the misuse of objects in idolatry. The second commandment explicitly prohibits the making of carved images for worship (<a href="/exodus/20-4.htm">Exodus 20:4-5</a>). Throughout Israel's history, the temptation to worship objects, such as the golden calf (<a href="/exodus/32-4.htm">Exodus 32:4</a>), leads to spiritual downfall and divine judgment. In the New Testament, the Apostle Paul addresses the issue of idolatry, urging believers to flee from it and to worship God alone (<a href="/1_corinthians/10-14.htm">1 Corinthians 10:14</a>). Objects, when misused, can become idols that distract from true worship and devotion to God. Conclusion Objects in the Bible serve various roles, from instruments of divine action to symbols of spiritual truths and representations of God's covenant. They can enhance understanding of God's work and character, but they also carry the potential for misuse in idolatry. The biblical narrative consistently points to the importance of focusing on God Himself rather than the objects that may represent or serve His purposes.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
