'Powder' in the Bible

He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.

Yahweh will make the rain of your land powder and dust: from the sky shall it come down on you, until you are destroyed.

He broke down the altars, and beat the Asherim and the engraved images into powder, and cut down all the incense altars throughout all the land of Israel, and returned to Jerusalem.
