Context: The Hebrew word חֲלוּשָׁה (chalushah) appears in the context of describing military defeat. It is rooted in the verb חָלַשׁ (chalash), which means "to be weak" or "to be defeated." This term is used to express the outcome of a battle where one party is overpowered by another, resulting in a state of subjugation or loss. The concept of חֲלוּשָׁה is significant in the biblical narrative as it often reflects the consequences of disobedience to God or the result of divine judgment. In the Berean Standard Bible, the term is translated to capture the essence of being vanquished or subdued in battle. The notion of defeat is not only physical but can also carry spiritual implications, highlighting the importance of reliance on divine strength rather than human might.
