In the context of the Bible, it often refers to a large, industrial furnace used for intense heat processes, such as refining metals or, metaphorically, for trials and testing.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, furnaces were essential for various industrial processes, including metallurgy and pottery. They symbolized intense heat and transformation. In biblical literature, furnaces often serve as metaphors for divine judgment or purification, reflecting the cultural understanding of fire as both destructive and purifying.<div
