KJV DISTRIBUTION

Where nakedness 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

English meaning and historical usage.

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

nakedness

NAKEDNESS, noun

1. Want of covering or clothing; nudity; bareness.

2. Want of means of defense.

Ye are spies; to see the nakedness of the land are ye come. Genesis 42:9.

3. Plainness; openness to view.

To uncover nakedness in Scripture, is to have incestuous or unlawful commerce with a female.
