sha.shaq is used as a personal name in genealogical-style listings and a parent-child identification.

The supplied verses use the term as a proper personal name: it occurs among named individuals in 1 Chronicles 8:14 and identifies the father of two sons in 1 Chronicles 8:25.

Senses in use

  1. Personal name in family listings · dominant

    Both occurrences are tagged Noun · Proper. In 1 Chronicles 8:14 the form stands in a sequence of named individuals; the APB renders, "Ahio, Shashak, and Jerimoth." In 1 Chronicles 8:25 it identifies the parent in the clause naming Iphdeiah and Peniel as his sons; the APB renders, "Iphdeiah and Peniel—the sons of Shashak."

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the name directly in both verses: once within a list of people and once in the phrase "the sons of Shashak." The verse is read as a whole, but both clauses clearly preserve the personal-name use.
