Crushing or violent injury, particularly used for genital damage disqualifying from assembly
This feminine noun refers to crushing injury, used exclusively in the Torah's purity regulations. The term describes damage caused by violent compression or impact, distinct from cutting. In its sole occurrence, it appears in a phrase about men with crushed testicles being excluded from the assembly—a regulation that later prophets like Isaiah would interpret more metaphorically. The consistent translation across languages as 'crushing' or 'aplastamiento' reflects the term's focus on the type of injury (compression) rather than its location.

1. sense 1 — Deuteronomy 23:1 employs this word in the phrase 'wounded by crushing,' referring specifically to testicular injury that disqualified men from the covenant assembly. The term emphasizes the mechanism of injury—crushing force—highlighting the severity and irreversibility of such damage. This seemingly harsh regulation would later be softened in prophetic texts like Isaiah 56, which promises eunuchs a place in God's house if they keep covenant. 1×
