Exegesis
The verse employs an appositional pattern pairing each proper name with a gentilic adjective: aviezer {אֲבִיעֶזֶר | ʾă-ḇî-ʿê-zer} ‘Abiezer’ is followed by ha-anetoti {הָעֲנְּתֹתִי | hâ-ʿăn-nə-tô-ṯî} ‘the Anathothite’, and similarly mevunnai {מְבֻנַּי | mə-bun-nā-î} ‘Mebunnai’ with ha-khushati {הַחֻשָׁתִי | ha-ḥu-šā-ṯî} ‘the Hushathite’. The absence of conjunctions in Hebrew creates a terse, coordinate list, which English renders with “and” or prepositional phrases. The definite article on gentilic adjectives is integrated into the English nominal phrase, preserving origin identification.
In context — 2 Samuel 23:27
Abiezer the Anathothite and Mebunnai the Hushathite .
