ABISHAI, OR ABISHAI
- A>@ - (father of a gift), The eldest of the three sons of Zeruiah, David’s sister, and brother to Joab and Asahel. ( kjv@1Chronicles:2:16) Like his two brothers he was the devoted follower of David. He was his companion in the desperate night expedition to the camp of Saul. ( kjv@1Samuel:26:6-9) (B.C. 1055.) On the outbreak of Absalom’s rebellion he remained true to the king,a nd commanded a third part of the army in the decisive battle against Absalom. He rescued David from the hands of the gigantic Philistine, Ishbi-benob. (2 Samuel 21:17) His personal prowess on this, as on another occasion, when he fought singlehanded against three hundred, won for him a place as captain of the second three of David’s mighty men. (2 Samuel 23:18; kjv@1Chronicles:11:20)
