Topical Lexicon Word Origin: A primitive root in Aramaic.Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • Strong's Greek Number 248: ἁλοάω (haloáō) • to tread, to thresh. Usage: This term is used in the context of trampling or threshing, often related to the process of separating grain from chaff by treading. Context: The Aramaic root דּוּשׁ (dûsh) is primarily associated with the action of trampling or threshing. In ancient agricultural practices, threshing was a critical process where harvested grain was spread out on a threshing floor and trampled by animals or beaten to separate the edible parts from the husks. This imagery is often used metaphorically in biblical texts to describe acts of judgment or destruction, where nations or individuals are depicted as being trampled underfoot. The concept of threshing conveys both the idea of destruction and purification, as the process removes the unwanted chaff, leaving behind the valuable grain. The term appears in Aramaic sections of the Hebrew Bible, reflecting the cultural and linguistic influences of the surrounding regions during the periods of exile and foreign rule.
