Semantic domains 3 entries
- Clothing001003001001002
- מָזִיחַ names a belt or waistband, a worn article of clothing, as in Job 12:21's "He loosens the belt of the strong," and Psalm 109:19's image of a curse "as a belt which he constantly wears."
- Control002003002007
- The word extends figuratively to strength or restraining power, as in Isaiah 23:10's declaration "there is no more restraint," using the same belt-image for a controlling constraint that has been removed.
- Ports001003002005
- The fact-packet data also assigns the Ports domain here, apparently reflecting the maritime setting of Isaiah 23:10 (addressed to "daughter of Tarshish," a seafaring people) rather than an independent sense of the word itself.
