Hello,
Showing the text to an Israeli friend, he told me that the hebrew word translate spear (clypeus) is בַּכִּיד֑וֹן KIDON and it means :
A wooden staff/pole with a pointed extremity intended to be thrown (the melee spear in Hebrew is KANIT).
(I apologize if I am not able to write some longest posts or better articulated, but my writing English doesn't allow me a lot of liberty of expression :-? . However, I hope being able to bring any contribution).
