   In Job 9:7, the masculine singular absolute form occurs in the clause where the sun is commanded not to rise; the APB renders, “who commands the sun, and it does not rise.” In Judges 14:18, the same noun form marks the time “before the sun set,” while Judges 8:13 has a proper-noun tag in the phrase rendered “at the ascent of the sun.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “sun” in Job 9:7 and Judges 14:18 and within “the ascent of the sun” in Judges 8:13. These renderings confirm the clauses' overall presentation rather than isolate every contribution of the term.
