'Winnowing' in the Bible
Now isn’t Boaz our relative? Haven’t you been working with his female servants? This evening he will be winnowing barley on the threshing floor.
The oxen and donkeys that work the ground will eat salted fodder scattered with winnowing shovel and fork.
At that time, it will be told this people and to Jerusalem, "A scorching wind from the barren heights in the desert is coming toward my people, and it's not for winnowing or cleansing.
a wind too strong and full for this comes at My word. Now I will also speak judgment against My people.”
I scattered them with a winnowing forkat the gates of the land.I made them childless; I destroyed My people.They would not turn from their ways.
