In Romans 11:4, the accusative plural masculine form occurs in the statement, “I have left for myself seven thousand men who have not bowed a knee to Baal.” The APB presents the group as men distinguished by their refusal to bow to Baal.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Romans 11:4, the APB presents the term within “seven thousand men”; That wording confirms the clause's group and quantity without isolating each word's contribution.
