Contextual Overview

8 Following are the names of David's warrior-heroes: Yoshev-Bashevet the Tach'kmoni, chief of the three, also known as ‘Adino the ‘Etzni; he is the one who came against 800 men, whom he killed in a single encounter. 9 After him was El‘azar the son of Dodo the son of Achochi, one of the three warriors with David when they put their lives in jeopardy against the P'lishtim who were there assembled for battle, while the men of Isra'el had gone away. 10 He stood firm and attacked the P'lishtim until his hand went into spasm, so that he couldn't let go of his sword. Adonai accomplished a great victory that day; but the people didn't return until he had finished, and then only to plunder the bodies of the dead. 11 After him was Shammah the son of Age the Harari. The P'lishtim had assembled at Lechi, where there was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the P'lishtim. 12 But he stood in the middle of the plot and defended it, killing the P'lishtim; and Adonai brought about a great victory. 13 During harvest season three of the thirty leaders went down and came to David at the cave of ‘Adulam when a company of P'lishtim had set up camp in the Refa'im Valley. 14 At that time David was in the fortress, and the garrison of the P'lishtim was in Beit-Lechem. 15 David had a craving and said, "I wish someone could give me water to drink from the well by the gate of Beit-Lechem!" 16 The three warrior-heroes broke through the army of the P'lishtim, drew water from the well by the gate of Beit-Lechem, took it and brought it to David. But he wouldn't drink it. Instead, he poured it out to Adonai 17 and said, " Adonai ! Heaven forbid that I should do such a thing! Am I to drink the blood of men who went and put their lives in jeopardy?"— and he would not consent to drink it. These are the things the three warrior-heroes did.

Abiezer the Anethothite,.... He was of Anathoth, in the tribe of Benjamin, Joshua 21:18, the birthplace of Jeremiah the prophet, Jeremiah 1:1:

Mebunnai the Hushathite; the same with Sibbecai, 1 Chronicles 11:29; this man had two names, and was a descendant of Hushah, who came of Judah, 1 Chronicles 4:4.
