Usage: The term מִשְׁאֶרֶת is used in the context of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt, specifically referring to the kneading-troughs in which they carried unleavened dough. Context: מִשְׁאֶרֶת appears in the Hebrew Bible in the context of the Exodus narrative. It is mentioned in Exodus 12:34, where the Israelites, in their haste to leave Egypt, took their unleavened dough before it was leavened, carrying it in their kneading-troughs wrapped in clothing upon their shoulders. This reflects the urgency and immediacy of their departure, as they did not have time to let the dough rise. The kneading-troughs were likely simple, portable containers, essential for the preparation of bread, a staple in the ancient Near Eastern diet. The use of מִשְׁאֶרֶת in this context underscores the practical aspects of daily life and survival during the Exodus, highlighting the reliance on basic tools and resources in times of transition and uncertainty.
