Dish
Easton's Bible Dictionary
For eating from (2 Kings 21:13 ). Judas dipped his hand with a "sop" or piece of bread in the same dish with our Lord, thereby indicating friendly intimacy (Matthew 26:23 ). The "lordly dish" in Judges 5:25 was probably the shallow drinking cup, usually of brass. In Judges 6:38 the same Hebrew word is rendered "bowl." The dishes of the tabernacle were made of pure gold ( Exodus 25:29; 37:16 ).
