Summary

rashash is rendered "to beat". It stands 2 times in the Hebrew text, across two books.

  • One of the uses stand in Jeremiah, more than in any other book.
  • Its first use in canonical order opens the ledger below.Jeremiah 5:17They will devour your harvest and food; they will consume your sons and daughters; they will eat up your flocks and herds; they will feed on your vines and fig trees. With the sword they will destroy the fortified cities in which you trust.”
  • The Greek text spells it two different ways.

The first use

They will devour your harvest and food; they will consume your sons and daughters; they will eat up your flocks and herds; they will feed on your vines and fig trees. With the sword they will destroy the fortified cities in which you trust.”

Jeremiah 5:17יְרֹשֵׁ֞שׁ

The first use, in the order of the Old Testament's books.

Where the word stands

One of the word's two uses is in Jeremiah.

The other 37 Old Testament books never use the word.

How the numbers are counted

Every count on this page comes from STEP Bible's tagged Hebrew and Greek text, the same text the ledger prints. A use is counted once each time the tagging marks a word with this key.

Spellings are counted as the Greek text spells them, with the sentence's own punctuation taken off the word first, so a form that ends a clause is not counted as a second spelling.

The family is read from the lexicon by the stem the two words share, with the accents off, and a person or a place named on the stem is left out.
