The imagery of melting is employed in various contexts, including the physical, emotional, and spiritual realms.<br><br><b>Physical Melting:</b><br><br>The concept of melting is occasionally used in the Bible to describe the physical transformation of materials. For instance, in the context of refining metals, melting is a necessary process to purify and separate valuable elements from impurities. This imagery is used to illustrate God's refining work in the lives of His people. In <a href="/ezekiel/22-20.htm">Ezekiel 22:20-22</a> , God speaks of gathering Israel into the furnace of affliction to melt them as silver is melted, symbolizing purification and judgment: "As silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin are gathered into a furnace to be melted with a fiery blast, so I will gather you in My anger and wrath, put you inside, and melt you."<br><br><b>Emotional and Spiritual Melting:</b><br><br>The Bible also uses the concept of melting to describe the emotional and spiritual state of individuals or groups. This is often associated with fear, despair, or a loss of courage. In <a href="/joshua/2-11.htm">Joshua 2:11</a> , Rahab recounts the fear that gripped the inhabitants of Jericho upon hearing of the Israelites' approach: "When we heard this, our hearts melted and everyone's courage failed because of you, for the LORD your God is God in heaven above and on the earth below."<br><br>Similarly, in <a href="/psalms/22-14.htm">Psalm 22:14</a> , David uses the imagery of melting to express his profound anguish and vulnerability: "I am poured out like water, and all my bones are disjointed. My heart is like wax; it has melted within me." This vivid description captures the psalmist's intense emotional distress and sense of being overwhelmed.<br><br><b>Divine Judgment and Cosmic Melting:</b><br><br>The prophetic literature of the Bible sometimes employs the imagery of melting to depict divine judgment and cosmic upheaval. In <a href="/nahum/1-5.htm">Nahum 1:5-6</a> , the mountains quake before the LORD, and the earth melts at His presence, illustrating the overwhelming power and holiness of God: "The mountains quake before Him, and the hills melt away; the earth trembles at His presence&#8212;the world and all its dwellers. Who can withstand His indignation? Who can endure His burning anger? His wrath is poured out like fire; even rocks are shattered before Him."<br><br>This imagery is also present in eschatological contexts, where the melting of the earth and heavens signifies the final judgment and the establishment of a new creation. In <a href="/2_peter/3-10.htm">2 Peter 3:10-12</a> , the apostle Peter describes the day of the Lord, when "the heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare."<br><br><b>Symbolism and Application:</b><br><br>The metaphor of melting in the Bible serves as a powerful symbol of transformation, purification, and the overwhelming presence of God. It underscores the transient nature of human strength and the ultimate sovereignty of God over creation. Believers are reminded of the refining process that God may use to purify their faith and character, as well as the assurance of His presence in times of fear and distress.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
