This domain reflects an idiomatic use of this body-part word in the phrase "strike hip and thigh" (e.g. Judges 15:8), describing a devastating blow — not the priestly ritual sense shown in this entry's own sampled citations (Exodus 29:22, 29:27, Leviticus 7:32-34), which instead all describe the "thigh" as the priest's consecrated portion of a sacrifice.
