The noun occurs in clauses about a bow in 2 Samuel 22:35, doors in Isaiah 45:2, and material that stone pours out in Job 28:2. It also appears in comparisons: in Job 40:18 the APB renders bones as “channels of bronze,” while Leviticus 26:19 compares the land with bronze and Micah 4:13 describes hoofs of bronze.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across several supplied clauses, the APB explicitly uses “bronze” for bows, doors, a forehead, material from stone, bones, land, and hoofs. Its supplied English for Job 41:19 and Psalm 18:35 does not visibly isolate this noun’s contribution.
