KJV DISTRIBUTION

Where defiled appears.

This is exact English-word usage from the canonical KJV token index, not a Strong's estimate.

ORIGINAL-LANGUAGE MAP

Which Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek words stand behind this KJV word?

These relationships come from exact verse + token-position mappings. We do not assume that one English spelling always equals one Strong's number. A single English token can also carry more than one source tag, so the Strong's-link total can exceed the number of English occurrences.

WEBSTER’S 1828

Dictionary data is kept visibly separate from Scripture and from lexical Strong's data.

defiled

DEFILED, participle passive Made dirty, or foul; polluted; soiled; corrupted; violated; vitiated.
