In biblical usage, it can metaphorically refer to the act of bringing something to a close or completion, akin to rolling up a scroll.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient times, scrolls were the primary medium for written documents. They were made of papyrus or parchment and were rolled up for storage and protection.
