Description
Hachmonites in the text
The Hachmonites, also referred to as the Tahchemonites, were a clan or family mentioned in the context of King David's mighty warriors. In 2Sa.23.8, Josheb-Basshebeth, one of David's mighty men, is called the Tahchemonite, which suggests that he may have been a member of this clan. Similarly, in 1Ch.11.11, Jashobeam, another of David's mighty warriors, is described as the son of a Hachmonite. These references indicate that the Hachmonites or Tahchemonites were known for producing skilled and valiant warriors who served in David's army. However, no further details are provided about the history or origins of this clan in the Bible.

Direct connections
Every entity the graph places in a stated relation with this one, grouped by the kind of link. Each relation is authored once and its inverse derived, so both ends always agree. Rows marked “registry” come from the identity spine rather than from a verse, and a row marked “which bearer is the source’s decision” is one where the name could have meant more than one person. The last group is not a relation at all — it counts the events two entities stand in together.
