    Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In 1 Chronicles 11:43 the APB renders a list entry as “Joshaphat the Mithnite”; in 1 Chronicles 15:24 it includes Joshaphat among the priests who “blew trumpets before the ark of God.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Joshaphat” in both verses, first with the designation “the Mithnite” and then within a list of priests. It confirms the named-person context rather than isolating further lexical content.
