Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

ExplanationCommentary
EXPLANATION

Verse 27. Arorite, or Harodite, (2 Kennicott.) to distinguish him from Shammah. Eliza, who follows in 2 Kennicott. is here universally omitted, as he is supposed to have died soon, and to have been replaced by Zabad, (verse 41.) who completes the number of 30. Ken.—Phalonite; not Paltite, as 2 Kennicott. where t has been formed of the two letters un. So Septuagint have read Adni, “my lord,” perhaps correctly, (Ken.) instead of Adan, “any man’s,” (1 Kennicott. 17:32) as the two letters might easily be mistaken for one. Ken.—Helles was the captain for the seventh month, as the following was for the sixth, and Abiezer for the ninth. Calmet. 27:10. Bible.
