circumcise, cut off (verb); perform ritual circumcision or be severed
This verb is an alternate form of the common Hebrew root for circumcision (מוּל). BDB assigns it to a separate root (מָלַל), though functionally identical. Joshua 5:2 uses the imperative 'circumcise' when God commands Joshua to circumcise the wilderness generation. Psalm 58:7 employs the Hithpolel form 'let them be cut off,' describing the wicked dissolving away. The connection between ritual circumcision and metaphorical cutting-off reflects the verb's core sense of severing or removal.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — Denotes the action of circumcision (Josh 5:2) or being cut off/severed (Ps 58:7). The Joshua context is literal ritual circumcision of males, while the Psalm usage is metaphorical judgment (wicked being cut off like water flowing away). Spanish uses 'circuncidar' for the literal and 'sean cortadas' (be cut) for the metaphorical, German similarly distinguishes, showing how languages track the semantic shift from ritual to judgment. 2×
