    The form is tagged as a proper noun in every occurrence. In 1 Chronicles 25:18 the APB renders “The eleventh for Azarel, his sons and his brothers—twelve,” while 1 Chronicles 27:22 names “Azarel son of Jeroham” among tribal rulers; Nehemiah 11:13 likewise places him in a paternal line. Ezra 10:41 lists the name among other individuals, and Nehemiah 12:36 includes it among brothers with musical instruments.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB consistently presents the term as “Azarel,” whether in a list, a paternal line, or a group named in a musical setting. These renderings confirm the verse-level identification but do not supply a separate lexical meaning.
