Vessel for serving or holding liquid · dominant
In Judges 5:25, the construct singular form occurs in the clause about bringing curds; the APB renders the setting with “a lordly bowl.” In Judges 6:38, the absolute singular form occurs with water drained from the fleece, and the APB describes “the fullness of a bowl of water.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the vessel as “a lordly bowl” in Judges 5:25 and as the measure holding “water” in Judges 6:38. These phrases confirm the scenes rather than isolate a precise English equivalent.
