Usage: The verb שָׂחַט is used in the context of pressing or treading out, often related to the process of extracting juice or liquid, such as from grapes or olives. Context: The Hebrew verb שָׂחַט (sachat) is a primitive root that conveys the action of treading out or squeezing, typically in the context of agricultural processes. This term is used to describe the method by which juice is extracted from fruits, particularly grapes and olives, through pressing or treading. The imagery associated with שָׂחַט often evokes the labor-intensive process of producing wine or oil, which were essential commodities in ancient Israelite society. The act of treading out grapes in a winepress is a vivid illustration of this term, highlighting both the physical exertion involved and the transformation of raw produce into valuable goods. The use of שָׂחַט in the Hebrew Bible underscores the importance of these agricultural activities in the daily life and economy of the biblical world.
