    In Ezra 2:43 and Nehemiah 7:46, the form is tagged as a proper noun and occurs in the phrase naming “the sons of Hasupha” between the sons of Ziha and the sons of Tabbaoth. In Ezra 2:43 the APB renders the list as “The temple servants: the sons of Ziha, the sons of Hasupha, and the sons of Tabbaoth;”; Nehemiah 7:46 presents the same grouping.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name in the repeated phrase “the sons of Hasupha” in both cited lists. It confirms the list context rather than isolating the term beyond its proper-name use.
