The Son of Hachmoni
From BibleWiki
(Redirected from Hachmonite)
1. Jashobeam, one of David's mighty men (I Chron. xi. 11).
2. Jehiel, tutor of David's children (ib. xxvii.32). The former, however, occurs in the English Authorized Version as "an Hachmonite." In the parallel list of II Sam. xxiii. 8, the name of the same hero occurs as "Yosheb ba-Shebet Taḥkemoni," which the Authorized Version translates "the Tachmonite that sat in the seat," the whole sentence being an epithet of Adino the Eznite.
