חֲרַץ Chaldee, loin, the lower part of the back, round Which the girdle was bound, i.q. Hebr. חֲלָצַיִם, ל and ר being interchanged. In Chaldee this word is used in the singular. (Deuteronomy 33:11; 2 Kings 1:4 [Targums]); and in plural חַרְצִין (Exodus 28:42; Job 40:11); so also in Syriac, in which the singular ܚܰܨܐܳ (Rish being omitted) is frequently used for the back (Rom. xi. 10; see Castelli Lex., Syr. ed. Michaëlis, p. 316). So Daniel 5:6, קֵטְרֵי חַרְצֵהּ מִשְׁתָּרַיִן “the bands of his loins were loosed,” i.e. the joints of his back, the vertebræ.
