Senses in use

  1. A gentilic in a grouped list · dominant

    In Genesis 10:18, the masculine singular absolute gentilic occurs between the Arvadite and the Hamathite; the APB renders the list "The Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite." The same list placement appears in 1 Chronicles 1:16, where the APB renders the same three designations.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across Genesis 10:18 and 1 Chronicles 1:16, the APB presents the term as "the Zemarite" within the same three-item list. The verse is read as a whole, but both verses place it between "the Arvadite" and "the Hamathite."
