שָׁבוּעַ
shâbûwaʻ · Hebrew · Strong's H7620 · 20 occurrences
The KJV renders 5 different Hebrew and Greek words as “seven”
What it means
literally, sevened, i.e. a week (specifically, of years)
or שָׁבֻעַ; also (feminine) שְׁבֻעָה; properly, passive participle of H7650 (שָׁבַע) as a denominative of H7651 (שֶׁבַע);
How the KJV renders it
seven, week
Where that flattens a distinction
The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
“week”
also renders sábbaton (G4521)
