In Judges 6:2, the plural absolute noun occurs in the clause describing what the sons of Israel made for themselves from the face of Midian. The APB renders the verse with “the caves which are in the mountains,” placing these caves alongside other caves and strongholds.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Judges 6:2, the APB presents the term within “the caves which are in the mountains.” Its precise correspondence to the repeated English “caves” cannot be isolated with certainty.
