The ancient Hebrew variant would be perhaps
 rather: hutpaʿʿel.
See: Deut 24:4 הֻטַּמָּאָה.

P.T.

   Mandelkern assigns it an hypothetical "Hothpa."
Interesting vocalisation, though. Either  Niph'al
 or Pu'al regular forms would have functioned in
 this verse.

   (I don't understand the purpose of discussing the
 modern language on this list. Is it the wit which these
neologisms display? This seems unnoticed.)
