Usage: The term is used in the Hebrew Bible to describe actions that involve a sudden or forceful impact, often in a hostile or destructive context. It appears in contexts that suggest a violent encounter or an overwhelming force. Context: • The verb שׁוּף (shuph) is notably used in Genesis 3:15, where it describes the enmity between the serpent and the woman, and between their respective offspring. The passage reads: "And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He will crush your head, and you will strike his heel" (BSB). In this context, שׁוּף is translated as "crush" and "strike," indicating a mutual, aggressive confrontation.
