<div> '''1: κλίβανος ''' (Strong'S #2823 — Noun Masculine — klibanos — klib'-an-os ) </div> <p> is mentioned in &nbsp;Matthew 6:30; &nbsp;Luke 12:28 . The form of "oven" commonly in use in the east indicates the kind in use as mentioned in Scripture. A hole is sunk in the ground about 3 feet deep and somewhat less in diameter. The walls are plastered with cement. A fire is kindled inside, the fuel being grass, or dry twigs, which heat the oven rapidly and blacken it with smoke and soot (see &nbsp;Lamentations 5:10 ). When sufficiently heated the surface is wiped, and the dough is molded into broad thin loaves, placed one at a time on the wall of the "oven" to fit its concave inner circle. The baking takes a few seconds. Such ovens are usually outside the house, and often the same "oven" serves for several families (&nbsp;Leviticus 26:26 ). An "oven" of this sort is doubtless referred to in &nbsp;Exodus 8:3 (see Hastings, Bib. Dic.). </p>

"Who teaseth from raising ''(Rather From Heating It '' meeir '')'' after he hath kneaded the dough until it be leavened:" he omits to feed it only during the short time of the fermentation of the bread. So their lusts were on fire even in the short respite that Satan gives, till his leaven has worked. &nbsp;2 Peter 2:14, "cannot cease from sin." </p>
