  1. Personal name in family and gatekeeper notices · dominant

    In 1 Chronicles 26:1 the form is tagged Noun · Proper, and the APB renders a gatekeeper division as including “Meshelemiah son of Kore.” In 1 Chronicles 26:2 and 1 Chronicles 26:9, the same proper-name use introduces his sons and brothers; in 1 Chronicles 9:21, it identifies Zechariah by his father in the notice about the entrance to the tent of meeting.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “Meshelemiah” in each cited verse, within lineage and gatekeeper-related statements. These renderings confirm the verse-level identification rather than isolate every grammatical relation.
