Study note

Setting — The Chronicler records David’s military roster, listing specific commanders and their regional origins during the consolidation of his kingdom.

The words — עַזְמָ֙וֶת֙ ('az.Ma.vet) identifies Azmaveth, while הַ/שַּעַלְבֹנִֽי (ha./sha.'al.vo.Ni) functions as a geographic descriptor for Eliahba.

The thread — The verse sits within the continuous list of David’s mighty men in 1 Chronicles 11, directly following the enumeration in 1 Chronicles 11:32 and preceding the roster in 1 Chronicles 11:34.

Why it lands — It requires the reader to note the explicit geographic and tribal markers attached to each warrior, documenting the broad regional representation within David’s armed forces.
