A true HAPAX LEGOMENON — bohaq occurs exactly once in the entire Hebrew Bible, at 13:39, and nowhere else, so there is no second occurrence anywhere in Scripture to check a meaning against. The verse itself supplies the only evidence: a faded white eruption on the skin that the priest is to declare clean outright, no quarantine, no reassessment — probably what modern dermatology calls vitiligo or leukoderma, a harmless loss of pigment. ⚠ Printed untranslated here, matching this project’s own rule for a true hapax (see Leviticus 11’s solam and hargol, already on these pages): a confident-sounding English gloss for a word attested once would claim more certainty than the evidence supports. The King James guesses ‘freckled spot’; ASV, older and more cautious, transliterates it ‘tetter’ (an archaic word for a skin eruption, not a translation of the Hebrew); NIV and NWT both land on ‘a harmless rash’, independently converging on the one thing the verse is actually sure of. → first discussed at Lev 13:39
