The KJV renders 33 different Hebrew and Greek words as “come”
What it means
properly, to mark (so as to be recognized), i.e. to remember; by implication, to mention; to be male
a primitive root; also as denominative from H2145 (זָכָר)
How the KJV renders it
be male, mention, be mindful, recount, record, remember, make to be remembered, bring call, come, keep, put to remembrance, think on
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
