Language

dud denotes a container vessel, shown especially in contexts of boiling food and holding objects.

The clearly identifiable usage presents a container vessel: it occurs among vessels used for boiled holy portions and for holding objects. Other supplied verses contain the form, but the translation does not consistently isolate its contribution, so they do not establish additional senses.

Senses in use

  1. Container vessel for boiling or holding · dominant

    In 1 Samuel 2:14 the singular form occurs in a list with a basin and caldron as the priest's fork is put into vessels; the APB renders the list with “pot” and “caldron.” In 2 Chronicles 35:13 the plural form occurs where holy portions are boiled, and the APB renders “pots, in caldrons, and in pans”; in 2 Kings 10:7, the plural is the container in which heads are placed.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB visibly presents the vessel context with “pot” or “pots” in 1 Samuel 2:14 and 2 Chronicles 35:13, and with heads placed “in pots” in 2 Kings 10:7. In Jeremiah 24:2, Job 41:12, and Psalm 81:7, the translation does not clearly isolate the form's contribution.
