In Jewish tradition

It means loud noise. In Job it is God's thunder, and in Zephaniah it is the sound of the city's fall.

Interpretation. Thunder is read as God's voice, showing His power. Zephaniah's crashing is the coming "day of the LORD," a day of judgment.

Examples

• Yea, can any understand the spreadings of the clouds, the crashings of His pavilion? (Writings JOB.36.29, JPS 1917) tree →
• And in that day, saith the LORD, Hark! a cry from the fish gate, and a wailing from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills. (Prophets ZEP.1.10, JPS 1917) tree →
