Table vessels associated with pouring · dominant
The feminine plural forms occur in lists of table articles. In Exodus 25:29 the APB renders a list including “jugs” and says these are vessels “into which pouring is done”; Exodus 37:16 likewise lists “the jugs with which it is poured.” Numbers 4:7 places the plural form among the dishes, palms, bowls, and vessels of the drink offering, while 1 Chronicles 28:17 includes it in an inventory of gold and silver implements.
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the item within utensil lists, using “jugs” in Exodus 25:29, Exodus 37:16, and Numbers 4:7 and connecting them with pouring. In 1 Chronicles 28:17 it renders a broader list of implements, so the translation does not isolate the term's individual contribution.
