The use of bricks and brick kilns is mentioned in the Bible, reflecting the technological and cultural practices of the ancient Near East.<br><br><b>Biblical References:</b><br><br>1. <b><a href="/genesis/11-3.htm">Genesis 11:3</a> :</b> "They said to one another, 'Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.' They used brick instead of stone, and tar for mortar." This verse describes the construction of the Tower of Babel, where the people used bricks as a primary building material. The mention of baking bricks indicates the use of kilns to harden the bricks, making them suitable for large-scale construction.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/exodus/1-14.htm">Exodus 1:14</a> :</b> "They</div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><a name="sub" id="sub"></a><div class="vheading2">Subtopics</div><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/b/brick.htm">Brick</a></p><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick_used_in_building--babel.htm">Brick used in Building: Babel</a></p><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick--altars.htm">Brick: Altars</a></p><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick--cities_in_egypt.htm">Brick: Cities in Egypt</a></p><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick--houses.htm">Brick: Houses</a></p><p class="pspc"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick--made_by_israelites.htm">Brick: Made by Israelites</a></p><a name="rel" id="rel"></a><div class="vheading2">Related Terms</div><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/c/clay.htm">Clay (50 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/b/brick-kiln.htm">Brick-kiln (3 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/b/brick.htm">Brick (10 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/f/fortify.htm">Fortify (6 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/m/morter.htm">Morter (7 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/b/brickmould.htm">Brickmould (1 Occurrence)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/b/brickmaking.htm">Brickmaking (1 Occurrence)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/a/ammonite.htm">Ammonite (22 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/a/ammonites.htm">Ammonites (97 Occurrences)</a></p><p class="pspc2"><a href="/topical/h/holds.htm">Holds (67 Occurrences)</a></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="left"><a href="/topical/b/brick_kiln.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="Brick Kiln"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="Brick Kiln" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/topical/naves/b/brick_used_in_building--babel.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="Brick used in Building: Babel"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="Brick used in Building: Babel" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div> <div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"><script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script></div></td></tr></table></div></div></div> <br /><br /> <div align="center"> <div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhnew2.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
