The term is notably used in a prophetic context, indicating a struggle or conflict with a definitive outcome.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the imagery of bruising or crushing was often associated with conflict and victory. The act of crushing an enemy symbolized total defeat and dominance. In the biblical context, this term is used to convey the ultimate victory of good over evil, as seen in the protoevangelium (the first gospel) in Genesis.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>a prim. root<br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>to bruise<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>bruise (2), bruises (1), overwhelm (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">שׁוּף</font>] <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>verb</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>bruise</b></font> (Late Hebrew <em>id.</em>, Aramaic <font class="hebrew2">שׁוּף</font>, <font class="hebrew2">שְׁפַף</font>, <img src="/bdbgif/bdb100301.gif"> <em>rub off, away, grind</em> (Exodus 32:20 <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ7</font> <font class="hebrew2">ᵑ9</font> for <font class="hebrew2">טָחַן</font>);
