tôrch (לפּיד, lappı̄dh; λαμπάς, lampás; in the King James Version this word occurs only 4 times (Nah_2:3, Nah_2:4 (Hebrew 4, 5); Zec_12:6; Joh_18:3). In the Revised Version (British and American) it is found 10 times (Gen_15:17; Jdg_7:16, Jdg_7:20; Job_41:19 (Hebrew 11); Eze_1:13; Dan_10:6; Nah_2:4 (Hebrew 5); Zec_12:6; Joh_18:3; Rev_8:10)): A flambeau; a large portable light. See LAMP; LANTERN.

Zec_12:6 (a) GOD is prophesying that the rulers of Jerusalem will some day destroy all their enemies, as the fire destroys the wood.
Joh_18:3 (c) We may understand that this is a type of human intelligence, research and reasoning by means of which men seek to find the Lord JESUS, who is the light of life. "Reason is the natural sun in the mental world." Men with the feeble light of their intelligence seek to find the One who made "the sun to rule by day, and the moon by night."

is the occasional rendering in the A.V. of לִפַּיד, lappid (Zec_12:6), which usually signifies (and is translated) a lamp; and so λαμπάς (Joh_18:3). In Nah_2:3 [Hebrews 4] it represents
פְּלָדָה,peladdh, which rather signifies iron. SEE STEEL. The distinction in the East between a torch and a lantern (q.v.) is not very marked as both are often but forms of flambeaus. SEE LAMP. A flaming torch is sometimes quoted by the prophets as the symbol of great anger and destruction (Zec_12:6). So also Isaiah (Isa_7:4) compares Rezin, king of Syria, and the king of Israel, two bitter enemies to Ahaz, king of Judah, to two tails of smoking firebrands. SEE FIREBRAND.
