Senses in use

  1. Place associated with Barzillai · dominant

    Both occurrences are tagged as a proper noun. In 2 Samuel 17:27 the form identifies Barzillai the Gileadite by place, and the APB renders the clause “Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim.” In 2 Samuel 19:32 the same proper-noun form occurs in the narrative about Barzillai sustaining the king during his stay at Mahanaim; the APB does not visibly reproduce the place name in its wording.

In the Anselm Project Bible: In 2 Samuel 17:27 the APB includes “from Rogelim” in identifying Barzillai. In 2 Samuel 19:32 the supplied APB wording recounts Barzillai's support for the king without visibly rendering the place name.
