Senses in use

  1. Punitive removal or expulsion · dominant

    In Ezra 7:26, the feminine singular absolute noun occurs in a list of judgments imposed on whoever does not observe the law. The APB renders the list as "whether to death, or to uprooting, or to confiscation of property, or to imprisonment," placing the term's contribution in a penal setting.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Ezra 7:26, the APB presents the relevant penalty within a list as "uprooting." This rendering cannot isolate the lemma with certainty.
