    In Ezra 2:43 and Nehemiah 7:46, the form is tagged as a proper noun and stands in the sequence “the sons of Ziha, the sons of Hasupha, and the sons of Tabbaoth.” The APB presents the clause as part of the temple-servant list in both verses.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the name in the phrase “the sons of Tabbaoth” within a list of temple servants. It confirms the list context rather than isolating the term beyond its use as a proper name.
