Connection with the smoke over Sodom
The furnace here is the same rare Hebrew word as the furnace smoke Abraham saw rising over Sodom (Genesis 19:28). Moses also used furnace soot to bring boils on Egypt (Exodus 9:10). The smoke over Sodom is the smoke that rose over Sinai when the LORD came down in fire.
