   In 1 Kings 14:3, the construct form occurs among items taken in hand with bread, cakes, and honey; the APB renders the clause with “a jar of honey.” In Jeremiah 19:1 the construct form is bought from a potter, and in Jeremiah 19:10 the absolute form is the object to be broken; the APB renders both Jeremiah clauses with “flask.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the item as “a jar of honey” in 1 Kings 14:3 and as a “flask” in Jeremiah 19:1 and Jeremiah 19:10. These English expressions confirm the verse contexts rather than establish separate meanings.
