The term is used in various contexts throughout the Scriptures, illustrating both positive and negative connotations depending on the circumstances and the moral implications involved.<br><br><b>Old Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the Old Testament, "heaped" is frequently associated with the gathering or piling up of physical items, such as stones, grain, or wealth. For instance, in the construction of altars or memorials, stones were often heaped together as a sign of remembrance or covenant. An example can be found in <a href="/joshua/7-26.htm">Joshua 7:26</a> : "Over Achan they heaped up a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day. Then the LORD turned from His fierce anger. Therefore that place has been called the Valley of Achor to this day."<br><br>The heaping of wealth or goods is also a recurring theme, often serving as a metaphor for abundance or divine blessing. However, it can also imply greed or the futility of amassing earthly treasures. <a href="/proverbs/13-11.htm">Proverbs 13:11</a> warns, "Dishonest wealth will dwindle, but what is earned through hard work will be multiplied."<br><br><b>New Testament Usage</b><br><br>In the New Testament, the concept of "heaped" is often used metaphorically to describe the accumulation of actions or consequences, particularly in moral or spiritual contexts. <a href="/romans/12-20.htm">Romans 12:20</a> advises, "On the contrary, 'If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink. For in so doing, you will heap burning coals on his head.'" This passage suggests that acts of kindness towards one's enemies can lead to their repentance or shame, symbolized by the metaphorical "burning coals."<br><br>The idea of heaping is also present in discussions of judgment and consequences. In <a href="/2_timothy/4-3.htm">2 Timothy 4:3</a> , Paul warns, "For the time will come when men will not tolerate sound doctrine, but with itching ears they will gather around themselves teachers to suit their own desires." Here, the heaping of teachers reflects a turning away from truth in favor of self-serving doctrines.<br><br><b>Theological Implications</b><br><br>Theologically, the concept of "heaped" underscores the biblical principle of sowing and reaping. Whether in the accumulation of material wealth, the gathering of spiritual wisdom, or the consequences of moral actions, the Bible consistently teaches that what is heaped up in this life has implications for both the present and the eternal. The heaping of blessings is often seen as a sign of God's favor, while the heaping of judgment serves as a warning of divine justice.<br><br>In summary, the term "heaped" in the Bible serves as a vivid illustration of accumulation, whether it be of physical objects, spiritual truths, or moral consequences. It challenges believers to consider what they are heaping up in their own lives and to align their actions with the teachings of Scripture.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>(<I>imp. & p. p.</I>) of Heap.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/285.htm"><span class="l">285. ammos -- sand</span></a> <br><b>...</b> Word Origin from psammos (sand) Definition sand NASB Word Usage sand (5). sand.<br> Perhaps from hama; sand (as <b>heaped</b> on the beach) -- sand. see GREEK hama. <b>...</b> <br><font color="#ff6600" size="-1">//strongsnumbers.com/greek2/285.htm</font><font color="#ff6600" size="-1"> - 6k</font><p><a href="/greek/3786.htm"><span class="l">3786. ophelos -- advantage, help</span></a> <br><b>...</b> profit, help. 3786 (from , "heap together") -- properly, "something <b>heaped</b><br> up," ie the () a believer in life by living .
