         DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:κέραμος} ‘potter’s clay,’ not occurring in the NT) pertaining to being made of potter’s clay

         Glosses: ['made of clay', 'clay']

         Comments: In some languages it may seem unduly repetitious to speak of ‘clay pots’ in {S:06600202700022} since a term for pot may refer only to objects made of clay. In biblical times, however, some σκεύη were of metal and others were of stone and wood. It may be possible to translate this expression in {S:06600202700022} as ‘they shall be broken like pots’ or ‘… like dishes.’
