1. Obed-Edom (proper noun) — The personal name Obed-Edom (Hebrew oved edom, 'servant of Edom'), referring to the Gittite who housed the Ark and the Levitical gatekeepers/musicians of the same name. All four clusters are spelling or segmentation variants of the same proper noun. S121812 has the full compound 'Obed-Edom' across all languages (Arabic ubid adum, Korean obed-edom, Swahili Obed-Edomu). S121814 captures just the 'Edom' component, S121816 and S121818 capture just the 'Obed/Oved' component — these are tokenization artifacts where the two-word name was split differently. Hindi consistently gives obed-edom-ke across splits, confirming single referent. 22×
