legs, lower legs (anatomical term)
This Aramaic noun refers to the lower legs or shins, appearing in Daniel's vision of the great statue in Nebuchadnezzar's dream. The image's legs of iron represent a fourth kingdom, strong as iron but ultimately fragile when mixed with clay in the feet. The term specifically denotes the leg from knee to ankle, the weight-bearing portion that supports the entire structure. In the symbolic vision, these legs of iron convey both strength and the eventual fragility of human empire, standing strong but destined to fall when struck by God's kingdom-stone.

1. sense 1 — The straightforward anatomical term is rendered as 'legs' across translations (Spanish piernas, French jambe). Daniel 2:33 describes the statue's legs of iron as part of the prophetic symbolism, representing a powerful kingdom that would crush and break all others—traditionally identified with Rome in Christian interpretation, or with the succession of empires in Jewish interpretation. 1×
