Context: The Hebrew verb שָׁתַן (shatan) is a primitive root that denotes the act of urination. This term is not frequently encountered in the Hebrew Bible, reflecting the cultural and linguistic norms of the time, which often avoided direct references to bodily functions. However, its presence in the lexicon indicates an acknowledgment of the natural processes of the human body. The usage of שָׁתַן is typically straightforward and functional, without additional metaphorical or symbolic meanings.
