5.141

Thumb [指擘] (The second character has the fanqie phonetic spelling 補 + 革; the Sancang says that bo is the big thumb; Lu Deming's Jingdian Shiwen says: "The big digits of both the hands and feet are named bo"; now the sūtra says "as large as a thumb", meaning of the size and dimension of a big thumb).
