While the specific contexts and nuances may differ, both terms convey the idea of reducing something to smaller components or particles.

Usage: The verb דָּקַק (daqaq) is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe the action of crushing or crumbling something into small pieces. It conveys the idea of reducing something to fine particles or dust, often in the context of grinding or pulverizing.

Context: • The root דָּקַק (daqaq) appears in various contexts within the Hebrew Scriptures, often associated with the process of grinding or pulverizing materials. This action is typically performed to prepare substances for specific uses, such as in the preparation of incense or the processing of grain.
