<p> ''''' pot ''''' : A term used as the translation of a number of [[Hebrew]] and Greek words whose fundamental meaning seems to describe them as intended for the most part to hold liquid or semi-liquid substances, but the pots of &nbsp; Exodus 27:3 are intended to hold ashes. (1) סר , <i> ''''' ṣı̄r ''''' </i> , the most common word for "pot." It designates most frequently some household utensil, probably a pot or kettle for boiling. So &nbsp;2 Kings 4:38 ff; &nbsp; Exodus 16:3; &nbsp;Jeremiah 1:13 the King James Version; &nbsp; Ezekiel 11:3 , &nbsp;Ezekiel 11:7 , &nbsp;Ezekiel 11:11 , "caldron"; &nbsp;Ezekiel 24:3 , &nbsp;Ezekiel 24:6 the King James Version; &nbsp; Micah 3:3; &nbsp;Zechariah 14:21 , etc. It is also used as the name of some vessel of the sanctuary. So &nbsp;Exodus 27:3 , where the context shows it was intended to hold ashes; &nbsp;1 Kings 7:45; &nbsp;2 Chronicles 4:16; &nbsp;2 Kings 25:14 . In &nbsp;Psalm 60:8; &nbsp;Psalm 108:9 , it is a pot for washing. (2) פּריּר , <i> ''''' pārūr ''''' </i> (&nbsp;Numbers 11:8; &nbsp;1 Samuel 2:14 ), a vessel for boiling; in &nbsp;Judges 6:19 , a vessel for holding broth. (3) דּוּד , <i> ''''' dūdh ''''' </i> , rendered "pot" in &nbsp;Psalm 81:6 in the King James Version, "basket" in the Revised Version (British and American); "pot" both the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American) in &nbsp; Job 41:20 . (4) צנצנת , <i> ''''' cinceneth ''''' </i> (&nbsp;Exodus 16:33 ), the jar in which the manna was placed. This jar or pot is mentioned in &nbsp;Hebrews 9:4 under the name στάμνος , <i> ''''' stámnos ''''' </i> . (5) אסון , <i> ''''' 'āṣōn ''''' </i> (&nbsp;2 Kings 4:2 ), some kind of jar for holding oil. (6) ξέστης , <i> ''''' xéstēs ''''' </i> (&nbsp;Mark 7:4 ), some kind of household utensil. [[Mention]] may also be made of the word rendered "pot" in &nbsp;Leviticus 6:28 the King James Version, where the Revised Version (British and American) renders more correctly by the general term "vessel"; for the King James Version "pots" (&nbsp; Psalm 68:13 ) the Revised Version (British and American) substitutes "sheepfolds." The root is uncertain. Those who render "sheepfolds" connect with the related root in &nbsp;Genesis 49:14; &nbsp;Judges 5:16 . Others render "fireplaces" or "ash heaps." See also "range for pots," in &nbsp;Leviticus 11:35; "pots," &nbsp;Jeremiah 35:5 the King James Version, correctly "bowls" the Revised Version (British and American); "refining pots" in &nbsp; Proverbs 17:3; &nbsp;Proverbs 27:21 .
