Bastard:

In the Old Testament the rendering of the Hebrew word mamzer', which means "polluted." In Deu 23:2, it occurs in the ordinary sense of illegitimate offspring. In Zec 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 (Jdg 11:1-7). In Hbr 12:8, the word (Gr. nothoi) is used in its ordinary sense, and denotes those who do not share the privileges of God's children.
