Both occurrences are tagged as a proper noun. In 1 Chronicles 26:3, the form identifies the seventh person after Elam and Johanan; the APB renders the list, “Elam the fifth, Johanan the sixth, Eliehoenai the seventh.” In Ezra 8:4, it identifies a man as Zerahiah’s son among the sons of Pahath-moab; the APB renders “Eliehoenai son of Zerahiah.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “Eliehoenai” in both verses: once in a numbered list and once with the identifying phrase “son of Zerahiah.” The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses present it as a personal name.
