Physical remains taken up for burial · dominant
In 1 Chronicles 10:12, the construct noun forms occur in the clause about taking up Saul and his sons before bringing them to Jabesh-gilead and burying their bones. The APB renders the clause, "took up the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons," confirming that the reference is to their physical remains.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In 1 Chronicles 10:12, the APB presents the forms as "the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons." This rendering is treated as confirmation of the burial context rather than a precise form-by-form translation.
