Senses in use

  1. Boot in a scene of broken oppression · dominant

    In Isaiah 9:4, the singular masculine noun occurs in a verse concerning “the yoke of his burden” and “the staff of the oppressor” being broken. The supplied gloss identifies the noun as a boot, while the APB renders the verse’s larger scene without isolating a corresponding English term.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Isaiah 9:4, the APB renders the breaking of the yoke, rod, and oppressor’s staff, but its loose wording does not isolate an English rendering for this noun.
