Garlic in a remembered food list · dominant
In Numbers 11:5, the masculine plural absolute form occurs as part of a list of foods remembered from Egypt; the APB renders the list with “the garlic.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Numbers 11:5, the APB includes “the garlic” at the end of the remembered food list. The verse is read as a whole, though the list context supports this presentation.
