Profile

Male • David's warrior • Son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, one of David's mighty men.

Man living at the time of United Monarchy

Eliphelet, son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, was one of David's mighty men (2Sa.23.34).

Eliphelet, the son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, is mentioned in the list of David's mighty men (2Sa.23.34). The mighty men were a group of elite warriors who fought alongside King David and were known for their exceptional bravery, strength, and military prowess. Eliphelet's inclusion in this list indicates that he was a skilled warrior who played a significant role in David's military campaigns. His father, Ahasbai, is described as a Maacathite, suggesting that Eliphelet may have had ties to the region of Maacah, located near the border of Israel and Syria.
