'Toward' in the Bible

Out of control with rage, Nebuchadnezzar's facial expression changed toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and he ordered that the furnace be heated seven times hotter than usual.

"Toward the end of their rule, as the desecrations proceed, an insolent king will arise, proficient at deception.

He'll turn his attention toward the fortresses in his own territory, but he'll stumble and fall, and won't endure.

Through flattery he'll corrupt those who act wickedly toward the covenant, but people who know their God will be strong and take action.
