  1. Clan designation associated with Asriel · dominant

    In Numbers 26:31, the masculine singular gentilic form occurs in a listing that names Asriel and then his clan before naming Shechem and his clan. The APB renders the clause "Asriel, the clan of the Asrielites;", but the clause presents the form as a group designation.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In Numbers 26:31, the APB presents the form within "the clan of the Asrielites." This wording confirms the clause's group reference rather than isolating a precise English equivalent.
