Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The Greek equivalent often used in the Septuagint for similar concepts is πυρ (pur), Strong's Greek 4442, which also means fire or flame.

Usage: The Hebrew word "shabib" refers to a flame or blaze, often used metaphorically to describe something that is consuming or intense. It conveys the idea of a powerful, consuming fire, which can be both destructive and purifying.

Cultural and Historical Background: In ancient Israel, fire was a significant element in daily life, used for cooking, warmth, and religious sacrifices. The imagery of fire is prevalent throughout the Bible, symbolizing God's presence, judgment, and purification. The concept of a consuming flame would resonate with the Israelites, who understood both the practical and symbolic power of fire.
