Subjects in this Topic:

[many Ez'bai, some Ezba'i] (Hebrews Ezbay', àֶæְáִּé in pause àֶæְáָּé , signif. uncertain; Sept. Á᾿æâß v. R. Á᾿æïâáß ,Vulg. Asbai), the father of Naarai, which later was one of David's thirty heroes. (1Ch_11:37). B.C. 1046. In the parallel list (2Sa_23:30) the names are given "PAARAI the Arbite," which Kennicott decides to be a corruption of the reading in Chronicles (Dissertation, page 209).
