International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [5]

gob´let ( אגּן , 'aggān ): A bowl or basin ( Song of Solomon 7:2 ), the only place where the word is used. 'Aggān is used in the plural in Exodus 24:6 and Isaiah 22:24 , and is translated "basins" and "cups." These "basins" were used to hold the blood of the sacrifices and must have been of moderate size. The "cups" were bowl-shaped vessels and belonged evidently to the smaller class of vessels used in a house.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [6]

(אִגָּן , aggan', prop. a trough for washing garments, hence a laver; Song of Solomon 7:2, where it is described as being round; elsewhere a sacrificial "basin," Exodus 24:6, or pensile drinking "cup," Isaiah 22:24). In form and material these utensils were probably like those found in the Egyptian ruins, some being of gold or silver, others of bronze, porcelain, and even wood. (See Bowl); (See Basin), etc.
