This process involved heating the grain to make it edible and preserve it for longer periods. In the context of the Bible, "qali" is often associated with sustenance and provision, particularly during times of harvest or when fresh grain was not available.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, roasted grain was a staple food, especially during the harvest season. It was a convenient and nutritious food that could be easily prepared and consumed. The process of parching grain was a practical way to ensure that the grain could be stored and used throughout the year. This method of preparation was common in the agrarian society of ancient Israel, where grain was a primary food source.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word
