         DefinitionShort: the event of destruction, involving splitting open and breaking

         Glosses: ['destruction', 'crash']

         Comments: Though the noun ῥῆγμα with the derivative suffix μα might lead one to assume that the reference is to a state of ruin or destruction, the context points to the actual event of destruction, and therefore the translation of ‘crash’ or ‘destruction.’
