Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In Nehemiah 3:10 the APB renders Hattush as “son of Hashabneiah” while describing repair work; in Nehemiah 9:5 it lists “Hashabneiah” among Levites who said, “Rise, bless the LORD your God.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name directly as “Hashabneiah” in both verses: once in a father-son identification and once in a list of Levites. It does not establish further nuance beyond its use as a name.
