Definition: The word "albinoism" in the King James Version (KJV) refers to the condition or state of a person being blind, deaf, or physically incapable of seeing or hearing. This term is found in Genesis 24:5 where the angel Gabriel speaks about a woman who had been barren and became pregnant, but when she gave birth her womb was covered by an albino cloak. The definition for "albinoism" as applied to this specific context suggests that someone with such a condition is physically incapable of seeing or hearing. This term is used figuratively to describe someone without the ability to see or hear the world around them, often in connection with the biblical story of Samuel's daughter, whose blindness prevented her from seeing God and ultimately led to her death. Albinoism was a common condition during the time of Noah's flood, where people with certain physical disabilities were considered "albino." This term was also used in Greek mythology as a metaphor for being blind or deaf.
