The concept of decking is mentioned in various passages, reflecting both literal and metaphorical uses.<br><br>1. <b>Decking of Ships</b>: The Bible references the construction and outfitting of ships, which would have included the decking as a crucial component. In <a href="/ezekiel/27-5.htm">Ezekiel 27:5</a>, the prophet describes the grandeur of Tyre's ships: "They made all your planks of fir trees from Senir; they took a cedar from Lebanon to make a mast for you." While the term "deck" is not explicitly used, the description implies the craftsmanship involved in creating the ship's structure, including its deck.<br><br>2. <b>Adorning with Decks</b>: The concept of decking is also used metaphorically to describe adornment and embellishment. In <a href="/jeremiah/10-4.htm">Jeremiah 10:4</a>, the prophet speaks against idolatry, describing how idols are adorned: "They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with hammer and nails, so that it will not totter." Here, the act of decking is associated with the beautification of objects, albeit in a context that warns against false worship.<br><br>3. <b>Decking in Judgment</b>: The Bible uses the imagery of decking in the context of judgment and false security. In <a href="/isaiah/23-16.htm">Isaiah 23:16</a>, the prophet speaks of Tyre, a city known for its wealth and splendor, which will face judgment: "Take up your harp, stroll through the city, O forgotten harlot; make sweet melody, sing many songs, so you will be remembered." The decking of the city, in its opulence, becomes a symbol of its eventual downfall due to pride and idolatry.<br><br>4. <b>Symbolism of Decking</b>: Decking can symbolize both positive and negative attributes, depending on the context. In <a href="/revelation/18-16.htm">Revelation 18:16</a>, the fall of Babylon is lamented: "Woe, woe to the great city, clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!" The decking here represents the city's wealth and luxury, which ultimately lead to its destruction as a result of its sinful ways.<br><br>5. <b>Cultural and Historical Context</b>: In ancient Near Eastern cultures, decking was a common practice for both practical and aesthetic purposes. Ships, homes, and temples were often adorned to reflect status, wealth, and religious devotion. The Bible's references to decking highlight the importance of craftsmanship and the human tendency to seek beauty and security in material things.<br><br>In summary, the concept of decking in the Bible serves as a multifaceted symbol, illustrating themes of craftsmanship, adornment, judgment, and the transient nature of human achievements.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
