Senses in use

  1. Proper name in Zebulun’s family and clan lists · dominant

    In Genesis 46:14, the form is tagged Noun · Proper and occurs in the list of Zebulun’s sons; the APB renders the list with “Jahleel.” In Numbers 26:26, the same proper-name use appears in Zebulun’s clan enumeration, where the APB again includes “Jahleel” before naming the Jahleelites.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name as “Jahleel” in both verses, first in a list of Zebulun’s sons and then in a clan enumeration. The clan designation in Numbers 26:26 should not be treated as a separate rendering of the lemma.
