It is the practice of shaping wood, stone, or other materials by cutting or engraving, often to create decorative or symbolic objects. In the Bible, carving is mentioned in various contexts, from the construction of sacred spaces to the creation of idols, reflecting both its revered and cautionary uses.<br><br><b>Biblical References and Contexts</b><br><br>1. <b>Tabernacle and Temple Furnishings</b>: Carving played a crucial role in the construction of the Tabernacle and the Temple, where skilled artisans were employed to create intricate designs. In <a href="/exodus/31.htm">Exodus 31:1-5</a>, God appoints Bezalel, filled with the Spirit of God, to oversee the craftsmanship of the Tabernacle, including "cutting stones for setting and carving wood, to work in every craft." The detailed work on the Tabernacle's furnishings, such as the Ark of the Covenant and the altar, involved elaborate carvings that symbolized divine presence and holiness.<br><br>2. <b>Solomon's Temple</b>: The construction of Solomon's Temple further exemplifies the use of carving in sacred architecture. In <a href="/1_kings/6-18.htm">1 Kings 6:18</a>, the inner walls of the Temple are described as being "carved with gourds and open flowers," showcasing the beauty and artistry dedicated to the house of the Lord. The Temple's design, including the cherubim, palm trees, and open flowers carved on the walls and doors, reflects the importance of carving in creating a space worthy of divine worship.<br><br>3. <b>Idolatry and Warnings</b>: While carving was used to honor God, it also served as a medium for idolatry, which the Bible strongly condemns. In <a href="/deuteronomy/4-16.htm">Deuteronomy 4:16-18</a>, the Israelites are warned against making "a carved image in the form of any figure," emphasizing the prohibition against idol worship. The prophets frequently denounce the creation and worship of carved idols, as seen in <a href="/isaiah/44-9.htm">Isaiah 44:9-20</a>, where the futility of idol-making is vividly portrayed.<br><br>4. <b>Symbolism and Meaning</b>: Carving in the Bible often carries symbolic meaning. The cherubim carved on the Ark of the Covenant and the Temple walls represent divine guardianship and the presence of God. The intricate designs serve not only as decoration but also as theological expressions of faith and reverence.<br><br>5. <b>Craftsmanship and Skill</b>: The Bible acknowledges the skill and artistry involved in carving. In <a href="/exodus/35-30.htm">Exodus 35:30-35</a>, Bezalel and Oholiab are described as being endowed with wisdom and understanding to perform all kinds of work, including carving. This recognition of craftsmanship highlights the value placed on artistic talent and the divine inspiration believed to guide such work.<br><br><b>Cultural and Historical Significance</b><br><br>Carving in biblical times was not merely an artistic endeavor but a significant cultural practice that reflected religious beliefs and societal values. The use of carving in sacred spaces underscored the importance of beauty and craftsmanship in worship, while the warnings against carved idols highlighted the tension between artistic expression and spiritual fidelity.<br><br>In summary, carving in the Bible is a multifaceted concept, encompassing both the divine artistry of sacred objects and the potential pitfalls of idolatry. It serves as a testament to the creativity endowed by God and the responsibility to use such gifts in ways that honor Him.<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Carving</span><p>The arts of carving and engraving were much in request in the construction of both the tabernacle and the temple.

There were no materials used in the arts which were not subjected to the graver's skill. Carved objects of wood, stone, ivory, clay, bronze, gold, silver and glass discovered today show how skillful the ancient carvers were. Carving was principally done in bas-relief, although <a href="/exodus/28-11.htm">Exodus 28:11</a> shows that incised lines were also used. The signets and scarabs are examples of this class of carving. Several Hebrew words have been translated "carved" in the King James Version. Pecel or pecil is found in <a href="/judges/18-18.htm">Judges 18:18</a> <a href="/2_chronicles/33-7.htm">2 Chronicles 33:7, 22</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/34-3.htm">2 Chronicles 34:3, 1</a>; chaqah in <a href="/1_kings/6-35.htm">1 Kings 6:35</a>. The translation "graven" appears in the Revised Version (British and American) of all these passages.
