This feminine noun denotes bracelets or ornamental bands worn on the arms or wrists, appearing in Isaiah's catalogue of women's finery. These were jewelry items that displayed wealth and fashion, part of the elaborate ornamentation worn by Jerusalem's elite women. The term may relate to roots suggesting chains or binding, as bracelets encircle the arm. In ancient Near Eastern culture, such jewelry carried social significance—indicating status, wealth, and marriageability. Isaiah's list condemns not the jewelry itself but the pride and luxury-seeking it represents in a society neglecting justice.
