Usage: The term רַתּוֹק is used in the Hebrew Bible to denote a physical chain, often in the context of imprisonment or binding. Context: רַתּוֹק (rattok) appears in the Hebrew Bible as a noun referring to a chain or shackle. This term is used to describe physical restraints, often associated with captivity or imprisonment. The imagery of chains is frequently employed in the Scriptures to symbolize bondage or the loss of freedom, both in a literal and metaphorical sense. In the ancient Near Eastern context, chains were commonly used to restrain prisoners or captives, reflecting the power and control of the captor over the captive. The use of רַתּוֹק in the biblical text underscores themes of subjugation and the need for deliverance, resonating with the broader biblical narrative of liberation and redemption.
