In the context of the Hebrew Bible, it can denote physical burning or a figurative sense of being consumed by intense emotions or divine judgment.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israel, fire and burning were significant both in daily life and religious practices. Fire was used for cooking, warmth, and as a tool for purification. In a religious context, fire often symbolized God's presence, judgment, and purification. The concept of burning or scorching could thus convey both physical realities and spiritual truths, reflecting the dual nature of fire as both destructive and purifying.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6866.htm">tsarab</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>scab, scar (of a sore)<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>scar (2).<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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> [<font class="hebrew2">צָרָב</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>burning, scorching</b></font> (= * <font class="hebrew2">צַרָּב</font> Thes and others);
