depressions, hollows, indentations (in a surface)
This plural feminine noun describes depressions or hollows in a surface, specifically appearing in Leviticus 14:37 in the priestly diagnosis of house plague. The text describes how the priest examines wall depressions that appear greenish or reddish and seem deeper than the surface—signs of contaminating mildew or mold. The term denotes concave spots, indentations where the wall surface has eroded or deteriorated. These depressions distinguished serious structural contamination from surface staining, requiring priestly intervention and possible demolition.

1. sense 1 — Translations consistently render this as 'depressions' or 'hollows' across languages (Spanish depresiones), describing the sunken spots in walls that indicated serious plague contamination. Leviticus 14:37 uses precise architectural terminology in the priestly manual for diagnosing house plague, with these depressions serving as diagnostic signs that the contamination had penetrated the wall's surface. 1×
