a utensil; a flask or cup for holding water (1Sa 26:11-12,16; 1Ki 19:6) or oil (1Ki 17:12,14,16). In 1Ki 14:3 the word there so rendered means properly a bottle, as in Jer 19:1,10, or pitcher. In 2Ki 2:20, a platter or flat metal saucer is intended. The Hebrew word here used is translated "dish" in 2Ki 21:13; "pans," in 2Ch 35:13; and "bosom," in Pr 19:24; 26:15 (R.V., "dish").
