    The form is tagged as a proper noun throughout. In Deuteronomy 3:1 and Numbers 21:33, the APB renders the confrontation with Og's people as taking place “at Edrei”; in Deuteronomy 3:10, Joshua 12:4, Joshua 13:12, Joshua 13:31, and Joshua 19:37, it occurs in descriptions of cities, territory, residence, or a city list.

In the Anselm Paraphrase: The APB generally presents the term directly as “Edrei,” using “at Edrei” in the battle accounts and listing it alongside places or cities elsewhere. Because the paraphrase is not word-aligned, these renderings confirm the verse-level setting rather than supplying a separate lexical nuance.
