Name within a genealogical succession · dominant
In Matthew 1:9, the accusative singular masculine forms occur in successive begetting clauses: Jotham begot Achaz, and Achaz begot Hezekiah. The APB renders the sequence, “Jotham then begot Ahaz. Ahaz then begot Hezekiah.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Matthew 1:9, the APB presents the name as “Ahaz” in the genealogical sequence. It confirms the verse’s succession without establishing finer lexical nuance.
