Subjects in this Topic:
ELIPHELET.—1. One of David’s sons (2Sa_5:16, 1Ch_14:7 (AV [Note: Authorized Version.] Eliphalet), 1Ch_3:6; 1Ch_3:8 = Elpelet of 1Ch_14:5). The double occurrence of the name in Chronicles, as if David had had two sons named Eliphelet, is probably due to a scribal error. 2. One of David’s mighty men (2Sa_23:34 = Eliphal of 1Ch_11:35). 3. A descendant of Jonathan (1Ch_8:39). 4. One of the sons of Adonikam who returned from exile (Ezr_8:13 = Eliphalat of 1Es_8:39). 5. A son of Hashum who had married a foreign wife (Ezr_10:33 = Eliphalat of 1Es_9:33).
