The concept of dividing into quarters is seen in various contexts throughout the Scriptures, reflecting both practical and symbolic meanings. Geographical Quarters The Bible frequently refers to the "four quarters of the earth" as a way to describe the entirety of the world or the complete scope of a particular area. This expression is used to convey the idea of universality or completeness. For instance, in <a href="/isaiah/11-12.htm">Isaiah 11:12</a>, it is written: "He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; He will collect the scattered of Judah from the four corners of the earth." Here, the "four corners" or quarters symbolize the farthest reaches of the earth, indicating God's sovereign ability to gather His people from all directions. Quarters in Time While the Bible does not explicitly use the term "quarter" to describe divisions of time as we understand them today (i.e., three-month periods), the concept of dividing time into parts is present. The Jewish calendar, for example, is based on lunar cycles and includes various feasts and festivals that mark different times of the year. These divisions, while not called quarters, serve a similar purpose in organizing the year into significant periods for worship and remembrance. Quarters in Society In the context of society and community, the term "quarter" can also refer to a specific section or district within a city. In <a href="/acts/16-12.htm">Acts 16:12</a>, Philippi is described as "a leading city of that district of Macedonia, and a Roman colony." While the term "quarter" is not used here, the idea of distinct areas within a city is evident. In ancient cities, different quarters might be home to various ethnic groups, trades, or social classes, reflecting the diverse makeup of urban life. Symbolic Use The division into quarters can also carry symbolic meaning in biblical literature. The number four often represents universality or completeness, as seen in the four living creatures around the throne in <a href="/revelation/4-6.htm">Revelation 4:6-8</a>, which symbolize all of creation worshiping God. The use of quarters in this symbolic sense underscores the comprehensive nature of God's dominion and the inclusivity of His plan for salvation. Conclusion The concept of "quarter" in the Bible, while not always explicitly defined, plays a significant role in illustrating the division and organization of space, time, and society. Whether referring to the geographical expanse of the earth, the structuring of time, or the layout of ancient cities, the idea of quarters helps convey the order and completeness inherent in God's creation and His divine plan.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
