Topical Lexicon
Word Origin: Derived from the root נָקַד (naqad), which means to mark or to designate with a point or dot.

Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: The corresponding Greek entry is Strong's G4742 • στίγμα (stigma), which refers to a mark or brand. In the New Testament, this term is used metaphorically to describe marks of ownership or signs of suffering for Christ, as seen in Galatians 6:17: "From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus." The concept of a mark or point connects the Hebrew and Greek terms, both indicating a form of identification or distinction.

Usage: The word נְקֻדָּה is used in the context of describing a physical feature that is prominent or raised, such as a knob or a stud. It is not frequently used in the Hebrew Bible, indicating its specific and limited application.

Context: The Hebrew term נְקֻדָּה appears in the context of ancient craftsmanship and design, where it describes a rounded, protruding feature. This could refer to elements found in architecture, weaponry, or other crafted items where a boss might serve both decorative and functional purposes. The concept of a boss is significant in understanding the artistry and utility in ancient Hebrew culture, where such features could denote status, serve as a grip, or provide structural integrity. The term is rooted in the idea of marking or pointing, suggesting that these features were not only physical but also symbolic, potentially indicating ownership, craftsmanship, or divine favor.
