In Matthew 4:18, the accusative singular neuter form occurs in the clause describing Simon and Andrew casting it into the sea; the APB renders the verse with “casting a net into the sea” as it identifies them as fishermen.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Matthew 4:18, the APB presents the fishing action as “casting a net into the sea.” This wording confirms the clause's setting rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
