In biblical times, yeast was a common ingredient in bread-making, causing dough to rise and become light and porous. The process of fermentation, where yeast converts sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide, was well understood in ancient cultures.<br><br><b>Biblical References and Symbolism:</b> <br>Yeast, or leaven, is mentioned numerous times in the Bible, often symbolizing influence, both positive and negative. In the Old Testament, yeast is primarily associated with the Feast of Unleavened Bread, a significant Jewish festival commemorating the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. During this feast, the Israelites were commanded to remove all leaven from their homes and eat unleavened bread for seven days (<a href="/exodus/12-15.htm">Exodus 12:15-20</a>). This act symbolized purity and separation from sin, as leaven was seen as a corrupting agent.<br><br>In the New Testament, yeast is used metaphorically by Jesus and the apostles. Jesus warns His disciples to "beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees" (<a href="/matthew/16-6.htm">Matthew 16:6</a>), referring to their hypocritical teachings and corrupting influence. Similarly, the Apostle Paul uses yeast as a metaphor for sin, urging the Corinthian church to "clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new unleavened batch" (<a href="/1_corinthians/5-7.htm">1 Corinthians 5:7</a>), emphasizing the need for moral purity and the removal of sinful practices.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Practices:</b> <br>The removal of yeast during the Feast of Unleavened Bread is a practice that continues in Jewish tradition today. This ritual underscores the importance of holiness and the rejection of sin. The absence of yeast in the Passover bread serves as a reminder of the haste with which the Israelites left Egypt, not having time to let their bread rise.<br><br><b>Theological Implications:</b> <br>Yeast's symbolic representation of sin and corruption highlights the biblical theme of purity and the believer's call to holiness. Just as a small amount of yeast can permeate an entire batch of dough, sin can spread and affect the whole community if not addressed. The Bible's use of yeast as a metaphor serves as a caution against allowing sinful influences to take root in one's life or community.<br><br><b>Positive Symbolism:</b> <br>While yeast often symbolizes negative influence, it is also used positively in Jesus' parables. In <a href="/matthew/13-33.htm">Matthew 13:33</a> , Jesus compares the kingdom of heaven to yeast that a woman mixes into flour until it is all leavened. This parable illustrates the transformative power of the kingdom, suggesting that even a small, seemingly insignificant beginning can lead to a significant and pervasive impact.<br><br><b>Conclusion:</b> <br>Yeast in the Bible serves as a powerful symbol of influence, both for good and for ill. Its presence in biblical narratives and teachings underscores the importance of vigilance against corruption and the transformative potential of God's kingdom.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
