Introduction

Tongues of fire is known phrase during the first century. According to the Qumranic documents 1Q29, 4Q376 and 4Q408 the “tongue of fire” is connected with Urim and Thummim in discovering the will of G-D and the high priest would rely upon it (Num 27:21; 1 Sam 28:6).
​
Tongues of fire (in Qumranic writings) and even the traditions as recorded by Josephus (Ant 3.214-215) indicated that a miracle happens and the appropriate stone (either Urim orThummim) would shine forth as a brilliant light - known to them as “tongue of fire." 4Q376 Frag 1 Col 1, Frag 2–4 (w/ 4Q408 Frag 2) and 4Q376 Frags 5-7: shows that the Urim was used to test whether a prophet was true or false. The show on the “tongues of fire” in each head of the apostles and the disciples with them was an affirmation a sign to everyone that these were proven to be “true prophets.”
And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

Acts 2:1-4
