1. Ebed-Melech (personal name) — Proper noun designating Ebed-Melech (עֶבֶד מֶלֶךְ, 'servant of the king'), the Ethiopian court official who rescued Jeremiah from the cistern (Jer 38:7-13, 39:16). The three clusters split the compound name into its components and a prepositional form, but all refer to the same individual. S121884 captures the second element 'Melekh' (Arabic 'مَلِكِ,' Korean '왕의'), S121885 the first element 'Eved' (Arabic 'عَبْدُ,' Korean '종'), and S121886 the prepositional 'to Ebed-Melech.' All translations treat this as one person: Spanish 'Eved-Melej,' Hindi 'एबेद-मेलेक,' Swahili 'Ebed-Meleki.' 11×
