Topical Lexicon Word Origin: Derived from the root רָקַק (raqaq), which means "to spit."Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: • G4427 (πτύω, ptyō): To spit. Usage: The term רֹק is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to saliva or spittle, often in contexts that involve ceremonial impurity or acts of disdain. Context: The Hebrew word רֹק (rok) appears in the Old Testament to denote spittle or saliva. It is often associated with acts that convey impurity or contempt. In the cultural and religious context of ancient Israel, saliva was considered a source of impurity, and its contact could render a person ceremonially unclean. This is evident in passages such as Leviticus 15:8, where the spittle of a person with a discharge is mentioned as a source of uncleanness: "If the man with the discharge spits on someone who is clean, that person must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be unclean until evening."
