What does the Bible say about engine?

Bible Topic · WEB

The Bible does not speak directly about engines, but it portrays human ingenuity as a gift to be used under God’s sovereign rule and for righteous purposes. In 2 Chronicles 26:15, King Uzziah’s craftsmen devised machines for Jerusalem’s defenses, showing the value of skill, planning, and technological invention. Ezekiel 26:9 describes military engines used in the siege of Tyre, reminding us that human tools can also serve destruction and judgment. Scripture therefore calls believers to receive technical ability with humility, gratitude, and moral responsibility, remembering that every human achievement remains accountable to the Lord.
