δοκός

(1) A liquid measure (See Ecclesiastes 10:9 ), to burning logs for cooking (Ezekiel 24:10 ), and to felling logs to use in house construction (2Kings 6:2,2 Kings 6:5 ). The timber which king Hiram of Tyre sent to Solomon was likely logs lashed together to form rafts (1 Kings 5:8-9 ). The “log” of Jesus' hyperbolic expression (Matthew 7:3-5; Luke 6:41-42 ) was a long, shaped piece of lumber (KJV, beam).
