sin´gū́ - lar : "Pertaining to the single person," "individual," and so sometimes "unusual," "remarkable." So The Wisdom of Song of Solomon 14:18 , the King James Version "the singular diligence of the artificer" ( φιλοτιμία , philotimı́a , "love of honor," the Revised Version (British and American) "ambition"). In Leviticus 27:2 by "when a man shall make a singular vow" the King James Version seems to have understood a "personal" or "private" vow. the Revised Version (British and American) has "accomplish a vow," with margin "make a special vow." Compare the same phrase ( yaphlı̄' (yephallē' ) nedher ) used of the Nazirite vow in Numbers 6:2 .
