Senses in use

  1. In a cargo list with an ivory vessel · dominant

    In Revelation 18:12, the accusative singular neuter form occurs in a sequence of cargo materials and vessels. The APB renders the relevant part of the list as “and every ivory vessel,” confirming the verse's setting without establishing a finer distinction from the translation.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Revelation 18:12, the APB includes “every ivory vessel” in its cargo list. Its precise correspondence to the form cannot be isolated beyond that clause.
