"Do not give your strength to
women"
In Arabic this word "strength" refers to
seminal fluid, but I do not think that is the sense in Hebrew, but rather
strength, efficiency, etc.
Am I correct that this word translated
"strength" is not used in connection with women in the Bible?
And how would you define this word? Does
it refer to manliness, manhood, or some such thing politically incorrect
thing?
