Thunderbolt [1]

( רֶשֶׁ , risheph, a flame, or "coal,'" Song of Solomon 8:6; hence lightning; fig. for arrow, Psalms 76:3; or, fever, Deuteronomy 32:24). In accordance with thepopular notion, "hot thunderbolts" (Psalm 68:48, רשפי, Sept. τῷ πυρί, Vulg. igni) means "lightnings." "Then shall the right-aiming thunderbolts go abroad" "(Wisd. 5, 21), βολίδες ἀστραπῶν, "flashes" or "strokes of lightning." "Threw stones like thunderbolts" (2: Macc. 1: 16), συνεκεραύνωσαν . The word conveys an allusion to the mode in which lightning strikes the earth. (See Lightning).
