Senses in use

  1. Proper name in an Ammonite notice · dominant

    In 1 Chronicles 11:39 and 2 Samuel 23:37, the form is tagged Noun · Proper and introduces an Ammonite before Naharai is named. In 1 Chronicles 11:39 the APB renders the notice "Zelek the Ammonite," while 2 Samuel 23:37 likewise renders "Zelek the Ammonite."

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the term as "Zelek" and identifies him as "the Ammonite." This reflects the verse-level presentation rather than a separate lexical rendering.
