The feminine singular absolute noun occurs in descriptions of crafted objects: in Exodus 25:18 the APB renders the cherubim as “of hammered work,” while Exodus 25:31 and Exodus 25:36 describe the gold lampstand and all its parts as “beaten work.” Numbers 10:2 applies the same kind of workmanship to silver trumpets, and Jeremiah 10:5 uses the phrase “a beaten palm.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term with “hammered work,” “beaten work,” and “by beating” in the object-making passages, and with “a beaten palm” in Jeremiah 10:5. These renderings reflect the clauses as a whole rather than a word-by-word alignment.
