Both occurrences use the feminine singular construct form in clauses about stone and wood work. In Exodus 31:5 the APB renders “the carving of stone for setting” and “the carving of wood”; in Exodus 35:33 it renders cutting stone and carving wood within “every kind of design.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the craft context with “carving” in Exodus 31:5, while Exodus 35:33 varies the surrounding English as cutting stone and carving wood. These expressions indicate the clause context rather than a fixed English equivalent.
