Gentilic designation in personal identification · dominant
The masculine singular gentilic form identifies Nabal in clauses concerning Abigail: in 1 Samuel 30:5 the APB renders “Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite,” and in 2 Samuel 2:2 and 2 Samuel 3:3 it similarly identifies Nabal. The same form also follows Hezro’s name in 1 Chronicles 11:37 and 2 Samuel 23:35, where the APB renders “Hezro the Carmelite.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across all supplied verses, the APB presents the designation as “the Carmelite,” attached to Nabal or Hezro. This reflects the clause-level presentation rather than a separate lexical analysis.
