What does dreaming about death & dying mean in the Bible?
An ending — and the seed that dies to bear fruit
In Scripture
Death in a dream is rarely a prediction; it far more often marks an ending or transition — a season, role or identity closing. Jesus dignified that pattern: unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains alone, but if it dies it bears much fruit. Living or dying, we belong to the Lord — so even endings are held.
