The term marks Egyptian identity for a collective group in Exodus 1:13, where the APB renders that they made the sons of Israel serve severely, and in Exodus 14:23, where it renders their pursuit into the sea. It also identifies particular people: Exodus 2:11 describes an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, Genesis 16:1 names Hagar as an Egyptian maidservant, and 1 Samuel 30:13 identifies the abandoned young man as Egyptian.
In the Anselm Project Bible: Across the supplied verses, the APB commonly presents the term as “Egyptians” for a group and “Egyptian” for an individual, including “Egyptian women” and “Egyptian maidservant.” These renderings confirm the clauses’ references rather than establish separate meanings.
