Description

Pelonites in the text

In the words of STEPBible TIPNR:

Pelonite or Paltite is a designation used for two of David's mighty warriors. Helez the Pelonite (also called the Paltite) is mentioned in 1Ch.11.27 and 1Ch.27.10 as one of David's thirty mighty warriors and the leader of the seventh division of David's army, which served in the seventh month. Ahijah the Pelonite is mentioned in 1Ch.11.36 as another of David's mighty warriors. The term Pelonite or Paltite likely refers to their place of origin or clan affiliation, though the exact location is uncertain. The inclusion of these warriors in the lists of David's mighty men highlights their exceptional military skills and their loyalty to the king.
