Subject: The origins of David's men of valor? |
Bible Note: Here is an abridged excerpt from THE CARTA BIBLE ATLAS which also has an accompanying map: “David’s men of valor ... served as the nucleus of his army and were unquestioningly loyal and always ready for daring exploits. Most were from Judah and Benjamin, though some came from more distant tribes, from Mount Ephraim and beyond the Jordan. The unit of “thirty chief men” became a permanent military institution during the reign of David, later their number swelling and including also foreigners, such as Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai of Beeroth, and Uriah the Hittite (2 Sam 23:37–39; 1 Chr 11:39, 41).” THE CARTA BIBLE ATLAS has over 250 more such stories. |
