In the New Testament, it is used metaphorically to describe the heavens being rolled up like a scroll.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Greek culture, the concept of rolling or coiling was often associated with scrolls, which were the primary medium for written texts. Scrolls were made of papyrus or parchment and were rolled up for storage and protection. The imagery of rolling up the heavens like a scroll would have been a powerful metaphor for the audience, symbolizing the end of the current order and the ushering in of a new era.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a form of <a href="/greek/1507.htm">heilissó</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to roll up, to coil<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>roll (1), rolled (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Thayer's Greek Lexicon</div><span class="maintitle">STRONGS NT 1667: ἑλίσσω</span><br><br><span class="arttitle"><span class="grktitle">ἑλίσσω</span></span>: future <span class="greek2">ἑλιξω</span> (<span class="manuref">Rec.<span class="lexsuper">st</span></span> <span class="greek2">ἑλίσσω</span>);
