Definition: The term "amenorrheic" in the Old Testament refers to a condition where women are unable to conceive or menstruate. This statement may imply that menstruation is not a normal part of womanhood, as it is a bodily process associated with childbirth and pregnancy. The Hebrew verb "amareh" can be translated into English as "to have menstruatio," which means "to produce milk." Women who exhibit amenorrheic symptoms are often said to be suffering from an illness known as menstrual disfunction. The condition of not being able to ovulate or if it is not possible, may also be described as a "amenorrhoea" - a state where menstruation does not occur. This term typically refers to the absence or lack of menstruation. Understanding the meaning and implications of these terms in the Old Testament literature would require a closer examination of the broader cultural and historical context of this phrase within the biblical narrative.
