The Hebrew word 'nush' (H5136) is defined as "be sick." Its semantic domain falls under Body & Health, indicating that its primary concern is a medical condition. Given its short definition and limited occurrences in the Bible (just one instance), it's difficult to determine the range of usage. However, based on the given definition, it likely refers to a general state of illness rather than a specific disease. This word's significance lies in its specificity to the concept of sickness. Unlike broader terms for 'be ill' or 'fall sick,' 'nush' directly conveys a state of sickness.
