It conveys the action of stepping on something with force, often implying a sense of dominance or disregard. This term is used in contexts where physical trampling is described, as well as metaphorically to indicate subjugation or contempt.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In ancient Near Eastern cultures, the act of trampling was often associated with conquest and victory. To trample upon something symbolized power and control over it. This imagery is prevalent in biblical texts, where trampling can signify God's judgment or the subjugation of enemies. The physical act of trampling was also a part of agricultural practices, such as threshing, where grain was separated from chaff by being trodden underfoot.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/7511.htm">raphas</a>, q.v.<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">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>foul, trouble <p>A primitive root;
