Outline of Biblical Usage [?]

a burning or live coal

A proverbial expression signifying to call up, by favours you confer on your enemy, the memory in him of the wrong he has done you (which shall pain him as if live coals were heaped on his head), that he may the more readily repent. The Arabians call things that cause very acute mental pain "burning coals of the heart" and "fire of the liver".

STRONGS G440:

ἄνθραξ, -ακος, ὁ, coal (also, from Thucydides and Aristophanes down, a live coal), ἄνθρ. πυρός a coal of fire i. e. a burning or live coal; Romans 12:20 ἄνθρ. πυρὸς σωρεύειν ἐπὶ τὴν κεφαλήν τινος, a proverbial expression, from Proverbs 25:22, signifying to call up, by the favors you confer on your enemy, the memory in him of the wrong he has done you (which shall pain him as if live coals were heaped on his head), that he may the more readily repent.
