Definition: The word "aleptic" in Hebrew, as used in the Old Testament and New Testament, refers to a type of man or woman who was barren during childbirth but gave birth when it would have been normal. In the Old Testament, this concept is associated with two main characters: Sarah and Leah. In the story of Samuel, the prophet, we see the story of Elihu, who is an expert in giving prophesies about people's lives. Elihu is tasked to give a vision that will reveal who "shall be his wife" in the end times (1Sam 29). The vision shows Abraham's daughter Sarah, who had been barren for over 50 years until she gave birth on her 60th birthday. This happened because God has made Adam and Eve sinners at their creation when they ate of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 3:19). The Bible does not mention specific names, but we know that this is Sarah's story. In the New Testament, "aleptic" refers to a type of woman who was barren during her pregnancy. This concept can be found in Acts 2:1-6 where Paul states that "some were 'aleptic' and some were 'neither'." This could mean that they both had children but were not pregnant or pregnant until the latter half of their life (Acts 2:4). The exact meaning and context of "aleptic" can vary depending on cultural, religious, and literary sources. But in general, this term refers to a woman who was barren during her pregnancy and gave birth when it would have been normal.
