In Leviticus 23:40 and Nehemiah 8:15, the masculine singular absolute form occurs in lists of boughs or branches to be gathered; the APB renders the phrases as “boughs of a leafy tree” and “branches of leafy trees.” In Ezekiel 20:28 and Ezekiel 6:13, the form describes a tree under which actions occur; the APB renders “every leafy tree” and “every leafy oak.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB uses “leafy” in the branch lists and tree settings, while Ezekiel 6:13 expands the phrase as “leafy oak.” These renderings show the verse-level presentation rather than a fixed English equivalent.
