    In 2 Kings 25:23, Ezekiel 11:1, Ezekiel 8:11, and Jeremiah 35:3, the form is tagged Noun · Proper and occurs with identifying family relationships. The APB renders named individuals among officers at Mizpah, rulers at the gate, elders with censers, and the Rechabite household.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the four verses, the APB presents the form as “Jaazaniah” and distinguishes the individuals through their fathers or other family identification. The name's contribution is clearest from its Noun · Proper tagging and its placement in the named clauses.
