Deuteronomy 28:35

The LORD shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch that cannot be healed, from the sole of thy foot unto the top of thy head.

The Lord shall smite thee in the knees, and in the legs, with a sore botch, х shªchiyn (H7822) ra`

(H7451)] - a malignant ulcerous leprosy, which particularly attacks and swells to hideous deformity the legs and knees. This is an exact description of elephantiasis-a horrible disease, something like leprosy, which covers the body with a foul and ulcerous skin, attacks particularly the lower extremities, which are covered with tumours that degenerate into loathsome and incurable sores.
