A feminine adjective used substantively appearing only in Leviticus 22:22, in the list of animal blemishes that disqualify sacrifices. Animals with 'a running sore' or 'weeping ulcer' cannot be offered to the Lord. The word emphasizes the active, suppurating nature of the wound—it's not healed but actively discharging. This single occurrence makes ritual purity dependent on bodily wholeness; animals with open, weeping wounds are unsuitable for holy use, even if otherwise healthy.
