    All three occurrences are tagged as a proper noun. In Ezra 2:9 and Nehemiah 7:14, the APB renders a numbered group as “The sons of Zaccai”; in Nehemiah 3:20, it renders the name within the clause about strengthening “a second measure.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name in “The sons of Zaccai” in Ezra 2:9 and Nehemiah 7:14, and includes “Zaccai” in the building clause of Nehemiah 3:20. It only confirms the verse-level presentation of the proper name.
