    In 1 Chronicles 11:33 and 2 Samuel 23:32, the form is a masculine singular absolute gentilicial following Eliahba's name. In 1 Chronicles 11:33 the APB renders the phrase “Eliahba the Shaalbonite,” and 2 Samuel 23:32 presents the same identification.

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the designation in the phrase “Eliahba the Shaalbonite.” The verse is read as a whole, but its repeated phrasing confirms the term's identifying use in these clauses.
