Literally, it often refers to the act of binding or bandaging wounds, as seen in passages like Isaiah 1:6, where it describes the treatment of injuries: "From the sole of your foot to the top of your head, there is no soundness—only wounds and welts and festering sores, not cleansed or bandaged or soothed with oil" (BSB).
