Spot Freckled [1]
frek ´'ld , ( בּהק , bōhaḳ ; Septuagint ἀλφός , alphós , called in the Revised Version (British and American) "a tetter," and described as a bright shining spot ( behārōth lebhēnōth ): These white eruptions did not render the person so marked ceremonially unclean ( Leviticus 13:39 ). This form of skin disease is described by Hippocrates as usually of no great importance and indicative of a sluggishness of body; it is probably some form of local psoriasis. There is a cognate modern Arabic word applied to a facial eczematous eruption. For other references to skin diseases, see Leprosy .
