    DefinitionShort: = woman who is the legal property of someone else; either married or eligible for marriage; her children belong to the person who owns her; ≈ because of this an אָמָה appears to have a somewhat higher status than a שִׁפְחָה even though both terms are sometimes used interchangeably
    Glosses: (female) slave
