    In 1 Kings 8:2, the masculine plural absolute form occurs in the phrase naming the month of the assembly to King Solomon; the APB renders the setting as "in the month of Ethanim, at the feast."

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Kings 8:2, the APB presents the term as the name of a month: "the month of Ethanim." It confirms the clause's setting rather than supplying a fuller lexical distinction.
