Senses in use

  1. Structural support for a building · dominant

    In 1 Kings 10:12, the singular masculine noun occurs where the king makes almug wood for the house of the LORD and the house of the king; the APB renders the resulting items as “supports.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Kings 10:12, the APB presents the item as “supports” made from almug wood. This rendering is confirmed by the clause's building context rather than treated as a precise lexical equivalence.
