Senses in use

  1. A spice-list ingredient · dominant

    In Exodus 30:34, the masculine singular absolute noun occurs in the LORD’s instruction to Moses to take spices. The APB renders the list as “gum, onycha, galbanum, spice, and pure frankincense,” though the translation does not itself mark word-level correspondences.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Exodus 30:34, the APB includes “gum” in the commanded list of spices. Its precise correspondence to the Hebrew noun cannot be independently confirmed from the verse alone.
