Definition: The word 'appleroot' refers to a term in Jewish law describing the method by which an individual purifies or cleans themselves before performing certain actions, especially touching holy objects like lamps and other sacred items. Purification involves the use of water to wash away impurities from the skin, scalp, eyes, feet, etc. This practice is often seen as an act of reverence and purification for those engaged in religious practices, especially Jewish prayer and worship.
