    In Matthew 23:23, the accusative singular neuter form appears in the list of items that are tithed; the APB renders the clause “you tithe mint and dill and cumin” before contrasting this with leaving “the judgment and the mercy and the faith.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Matthew 23:23, the APB includes the term in the list “mint and dill and cumin.” The verse context confirms the list-and-tithing setting rather than establishing a finer rendering distinction.
