Hock [1]

( עקר , ‛āḳar , "to root out"): To hamstring, i.e. to render useless by cutting the tendons of the hock (in the King James Version and the English Revised Version "hough"). "In their selfwill they hocked an ox" ( Genesis 49:6 , the King James Version "digged down a wall"), in their destructiveness maiming those which they could not carry off: See also Joshua 11:6 , Joshua 11:9; 2 Samuel 8:4 .
