Senses in use

  1. What is given over to the nations · dominant

    In Ezekiel 25:7, the masculine singular absolute noun occurs in the declaration that the people addressed will be given to the nations, followed by being cut off and destroyed. The APB renders the clause “will give you as spoil and plunder to the nations”; It does not isolate the noun from the paired English wording.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Ezekiel 25:7, the APB presents the judgment clause as being given “as spoil and plunder to the nations.” The verse is read as a whole, so the two English nouns do not establish separate meanings for the Hebrew term.
