grass, herbage; green vegetation or leeks
This noun denotes green grass or vegetation, often as food for animals. It appears in contexts ranging from literal grass for livestock (Psalm 104:14, Proverbs 27:25) to metaphors for quickly perishing enemies (Psalm 129:6, Isaiah 37:27). Numbers 11:5 may specifically refer to leeks—green vegetables the Israelites remembered from Egypt. Isaiah 15:6 laments the disappearance of all green growth.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Numbers 11:5 lists 'the leeks' (חָצִיר) among foods Israel missed from Egypt, while Isaiah 15:6 mourns that 'grass has withered.' The botanical identification in Numbers is debated—Aramaic cognates support 'leeks,' but the term generally means 'grass' or 'green plants.' Spanish 'el puerro/hierba' (the leek/grass) reflects this ambiguity. 2×
