mam.zer denotes a person identified in exclusion from the LORD’s assembly and in Ashdod’s future population.

   Both occurrences are masculine singular absolute nouns. In Deuteronomy 23:3, the term stands in a prohibition concerning entry into the assembly of the LORD; the APB renders the verse with “No Meunite or Moabite shall enter.” In Zechariah 9:6, it identifies someone who will dwell in Ashdod; the APB renders the clause “A foreigner will dwell in Ashdod.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the two clauses differently, using “Meunite” in Deuteronomy 23:3 and “foreigner” in Zechariah 9:6. These are clause-level presentations rather than certain individual renderings of the noun.
