 Bastard
    In the Old Testament the rendering of the Hebrew word _mamzer'_,
    which means "polluted." In Deut. 23:2, it occurs in the ordinary
    sense of illegitimate offspring. In Zech. 9:6, the word is used
    in the sense of foreigner. From the history of Jephthah we learn
    that there were bastard offspring among the Jews (Judg. 11:1-7).
    In Heb. 12:8, the word (Gr. nothoi) is used in its ordinary
    sense, and denotes those who do not share the privileges of
