plowshare, mattock; direct object marker (misattributed)
2. direct object marker (misattributed) — This occurrence in 2 Kgs 6:5 (וְאֶת) appears to be the common Hebrew direct object marker אֵת tagged under this lemma by morphological overlap, not the agricultural noun. The glosses (and, y, und, و) uniformly render it as a conjunction/particle rather than a noun, confirming this is a parsing artifact rather than a genuine sense of the plowshare noun. 1×

1. plowshare, mattock — A cutting instrument of iron used in agriculture, variously translated as 'plowshare' or 'mattock.' The iconic prophetic usage appears in Isa 2:4 and Mic 4:3 where swords are beaten into plowshares (לְאִתִּים), symbolizing eschatological peace, while Joel 3:10 reverses the image. In 1 Sam 13:20-21 it refers to agricultural tools the Israelites had to sharpen with the Philistines. Multilingual glosses consistently point to farming implements: Arabic سِكَكًا/فَأْسَهُ, Korean 보습 (plowshare), Spanish arados/azadones, Hindi हल (plow). 5×
