It appears in passages such as Matthew 11:5 and Acts 3:2.<p><span class="tophdg">Usage: </span>The Hebrew word "pisseach" is used to describe someone who is physically lame or crippled, often referring to a person who has difficulty walking due to a physical impairment. It is used in the context of physical disability and is sometimes metaphorically applied to describe spiritual or moral deficiency.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Israelite society, physical disabilities such as lameness were often seen as significant impediments to full participation in religious and social life. The Levitical laws, for instance, had specific regulations regarding those who were physically impaired, particularly concerning their roles in temple service (Leviticus 21:18). Despite these restrictions, the Hebrew Scriptures also emphasize God's compassion and care for the disabled, as seen in various prophetic and wisdom literature.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6452b.htm">pasach</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>lame<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>lame (12), lame man (1), lameness (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">מִּסֵּחַ</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>adjective</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>lame</b></font>;
