Proper name in the prophetic heading · dominant
In Malachi 1:1, the form is tagged as a proper noun and occurs in the heading that introduces an oracle as the LORD's word to Israel. The APB renders the clause "by the hand of Malachi," presenting the named person in connection with the delivery of that word.
In the Anselm Project Bible: In Malachi 1:1, the APB presents the name in "by the hand of Malachi." It confirms the verse's presentation rather than isolating every contribution of the Hebrew form.
