In 1 Chronicles 11:12 and 2 Samuel 23:9, the masculine singular gentilic form follows Eleazar son of Dodo; the APB renders him as "Eleazar son of Dodo the Ahohite" and places him among the mighty men. The same form is attached to Ilai in 1 Chronicles 11:29, Dodai in 1 Chronicles 27:4, and Zalmon in 2 Samuel 23:28, where the APB likewise presents each as "the Ahohite."
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across all five verses, the APB presents the designation with "the Ahohite" after a personal name. This reflects the clause-level presentation rather than a precise lexical mapping.
