Senses in use

  1. Identification with Zebulun · dominant

    All three occurrences are masculine singular gentilics. In Judges 12:11 the form identifies Elon as he judges Israel, and in Judges 12:12 the APB renders Elon’s death and burial while again identifying him this way; in Numbers 26:27 it occurs in the statement about clans being listed.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the form as “the Zebulunite” for Elon in Judges 12:11 and Judges 12:12, and as “the Zebulunites” in its clan statement in Numbers 26:27. These are translation renderings rather than definitions.
