Senses in use

  1. Named recipient and transporter of the vessels · dominant

    Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Ezra 1:8 the APB renders the vessels as counted out “to Sheshbazzar the prince of Judah”; in Ezra 1:11 it renders him as the one who “brought up” the gold and silver vessels with the captivity from Babylon to Jerusalem.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name directly in both verses: as the recipient of counted vessels in Ezra 1:8 and as the one who brought them up in Ezra 1:11. These clauses establish the verse context rather than a separate English rendering.
