Senses in use

  1. A named gentilic group · dominant

    In 1 Chronicles 1:15 and Genesis 10:17, the form is a masculine singular absolute gentilic within a list of named groups. In both verses the APB renders the list, “The Hivite, the Arkite, and the Sinite.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both cited verses, the APB presents the term as “the Arkite” within the same list wording. The verse is read as a whole, but its presentation is consistent in both clauses.
