Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry in Strong's Concordance is G2823 (κλίβανος, klibanos), which also refers to an oven or furnace. This term is used in the New Testament, such as in Matthew 6:30, where Jesus speaks of the grass of the field being thrown into the oven, illustrating the transient nature of earthly things compared to God's eternal care. In summary, תַּנּוּר (tannur) is a multifaceted term in the Hebrew Bible, representing both a common household item and a symbol of divine interaction and human behavior. Its Greek counterpart, κλίβανος (G2823), continues this imagery in the New Testament, emphasizing themes of provision and impermanence. Usage: The term תַּנּוּר is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to a type of oven or furnace, typically used for baking or burning. It is a common household item in ancient times, used for cooking and heating. Context: The Hebrew word תַּנּוּר (tannur) appears in various contexts within the Old Testament, illustrating its role in daily life and religious symbolism. In Genesis 15:17, the term is used in a vision where a "smoking firepot" passes between the pieces of a sacrifice, symbolizing God's covenant with Abram. This imagery of a smoking oven or furnace is significant, representing divine presence and action. In Leviticus 2:4, the term is used in the context of offerings, where unleavened bread baked in an oven is mentioned as part of the grain offering. This highlights the practical use of the tannur in preparing offerings for worship. The tannur is also mentioned in Hosea 7:4, where it is used metaphorically to describe the heated passions and corruption of the people, likening them to a baker's oven that is left unattended and becomes inflamed. The use of tannur in these passages underscores its dual role as both a practical tool in everyday life and a powerful symbol in religious and moral teachings.
