<p> ( '''''אָב''''' '', Father),'' occurs as the first member of several compound [[Hebrew]] proper names, e.g. (See [[Abner]]), (See [[Absalom]]), etc. not as a patronymic (See [[Ben]]), or in its literal acceptation, but in a figurative sense, to designate some quality or circumstance of the person named; e.g. ''Possessor Of'' or ''Endowed With;'' after the analogy of all the Shemitic languages (Gesenius, ''Thes. Heb.'' p. 7; in Arabic generally ''Abu-,'' see D'Herbelot, ''Biblioth. Orient.'' s.v.). (See [[Father]]); (See [[Proper]] Name). Hence it is equally applicable to females; e.g. (See [[Abigail]]) (as among the Arabs; comp. Kosegarten, in Ewalds '' '''''‘''''' Zeitschrift Fur Die Kunde Des Morgenlandes,'' 1:297-317). In all cases it is the following part of the name that is to be considered as the genitive, the prefix '''''אב''''' being "in the construct," and not the reverse. (See [[Abi]])-. </p> | |||

<p> (אך , <i> ''''' 'ābh ''''' </i> ): The name of the fifth month in the Hebrew calendar, the month beginning in our July. The name does not appear in the Bible, but [[Josephus]] gives it to the month in which Aaron died ( <i> Ant. </i> , IV, iv, 6; compare Numbers 33:38 ). </p> | |||
