stylus, marking tool (for working wood)
This rare noun denotes a marking tool or stylus used in woodworking, appearing in Isaiah's satire of idol-making. The craftsman uses this tool to mark out or design the wooden figure before carving it. Ancient versions suggest it was an engraving or marking implement, possibly related to the precious stone sardius (used in gem-cutting), though the connection is uncertain. The term represents the technical vocabulary of craftsmanship, highlighting the ironic process by which humans create gods with simple tools—marking, measuring, and shaping dead wood into objects of worship.

1. sense 1 — Isaiah 44:13 describes the carpenter who 'marks it out with a stylus,' part of the detailed satire of idol-making that emphasizes the absurdity of worshiping what human hands craft from ordinary materials. Spanish translates 'with pencil,' capturing the marking function. The stylus represents the planning stage of idol-making, where the craftsman designs on wood the figure he will worship—underscoring the human origin of supposedly divine objects. 1×
