  1. Proper name in genealogical listings · dominant

    In Exodus 6:17, the proper-noun form occurs in the list introduced as “The sons of Gershon,” and the APB renders the names “Libni and Shimei.” Numbers 3:18 similarly places the form in a list of Gershon’s sons by their families; the supplied 1 Chronicles entries also tag the form as a proper noun, though their APB renderings name other genealogical figures and do not isolate its contribution.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB explicitly presents “Libni” in Exodus 6:17 and Numbers 3:18 within lists of Gershon’s sons. In the supplied 1 Chronicles verses, the translation does not visibly identify the proper noun despite the recorded form and proper-noun morphology.
