This can refer to physical objects that are hard or difficult to break, as well as to situations or conditions that are severe or challenging. The term is used to describe the hardening of Pharaoh's heart in Exodus, indicating a stubborn or unyielding disposition. It also appears in contexts where people face severe trials or harsh treatment. The word captures both the physical and metaphorical aspects of hardness, emphasizing the challenges and difficulties faced by individuals or groups.
