1. veil, curtain (of the tabernacle/temple) — The inner curtain or veil (paroketh) that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place in the Tabernacle and Temple. S128602 covers the article-prefixed and construct-state forms ('the veil', 'veil of') while S128606 is the bare indefinite form ('a veil'). All multilingual glosses point to the identical referent: eng 'veil', spa 'velo', hin परदा, arb حِجَاب, kor 휘장, swa 'pazia'. The split is purely grammatical (definiteness/construct vs. absolute state), not semantic. 25×
