Sometimes I just dunno. Inspired / triggered by JW's latest and my own last strong man and bushel peculiar cases, I dug up all σκεύ and σκεῦ in the NT - only ditched the "day(s) Παρασκευῆς (of Preparation)".
Two verbs in here, but my on my, what JW said: hundreds of mentions in the Tanakh; 129 counts of "vessel" in the ESV Tanakh.
Don't know what to make of it, highlighted a shared parable, perhaps a start. What a load of rubbish in the NT, by the way
