ag.gan denotes a container or vessel, used for blood, lesser household items, and an image in a woman's description.

The attested uses present a container or vessel: plural forms occur among vessels for blood and among lesser vessels, while the singular construct form occurs within a poetic bodily comparison whose specific contribution is not represented in the APB verse.

1. Containers used or listed as vessels · dominant

   In Exodus 24:6, the masculine plural absolute form occurs where Moses puts half the blood into containers; the APB renders the clause, “put it in vessels.” In Isaiah 22:24, the same plural absolute form belongs to a list of lesser containers hanging on him, rendered by the APB as “all the lesser vessels, from the bowls to all the jars.”

2. Poetic image in a bodily comparison · occasional

   In Song of Songs 7:3, the masculine singular construct form occurs in a poetic description of the woman. The APB renders the verse as a comparison of her breasts to two fawns, so the term's individual contribution is not isolable from the translation.

   Song of Songs 7:3

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the plural occurrences as “vessels” and as lesser vessels including “bowls” and “jars.” In Song of Songs 7:3, its poetic rendering does not visibly preserve a distinct English equivalent for the singular construct form.
