When his brothers and the rest of his father’s household heard about it, they went down to him there. / And all who were distressed or indebted or discontented rallied around him, and he became their leader. About four hundred men were with him. 1 Samuel 23:13 Then David and his men, about six hundred strong, set out and departed from Keilah, moving from place to place. When Saul was told that David had escaped from Keilah, he declined to go forth. 1 Samuel 30:9-10 So David and his six hundred men went to the Brook of Besor, where some stayed behind / because two hundred men were too exhausted to cross the brook.

You are to blow the ram’s horn and declare, ‘Long live King Solomon!’ ... 1 Kings 2:5-6 Moreover, you know what Joab son of Zeruiah did to me—what he did to Abner son of Ner and Amasa son of Jether, the two commanders of the armies of Israel. He killed them in peacetime to avenge the blood of war. He stained with the blood of war the belt around his waist and the sandals on his feet. / So act according to your wisdom, and do not let his gray head go down to Sheol in peace. 1 Kings 2:32-33 The LORD will bring his bloodshed back upon his own head, for without the knowledge of my father David he struck down two men more righteous and better than he when he put to the sword Abner son of Ner, commander of Israel’s army, and Amasa son of Jether, commander of Judah’s army. / Their blood will come back upon the heads of Joab and his descendants forever; but for David, his descendants, his house, and his throne, there shall be peace from the LORD forever.” 1 Kings 2:36-46 Then the king summoned Shimei and said to him, “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem and live there, but do not go anywhere else. / On the day you go out and cross the Kidron Valley, know for sure that you will die; your blood will be on your own head.” / “The sentence is fair,” Shimei replied. “Your servant will do as my lord the king has spoken.” And Shimei lived in Jerusalem for a long time. ... 1 Chronicles 12:1-2 Now these were the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still banished from the presence of Saul son of Kish (they were among the mighty men who helped him in battle; / they were archers using both the right and left hands to sling stones and shoot arrows; and they were Saul’s kinsmen from Benjamin): 1 Chronicles 12:8-15 Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the wilderness. They were mighty men of valor, trained for battle, experts with the shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions and who were as swift as gazelles on the mountains: / Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second in command, Eliab the third, / Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth, ... 1 Chronicles 12:18 Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, the chief of the Thirty, and he said: “We are yours, O David! We are with you, O son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers, for your God helps you.” So David received them and made them leaders of his troops.

A catalogue of David's mighty men Abi-albon the Arbathite Abi-albon is listed among the mighty warriors of King David, known as the "Thirty." The name Abi-albon means "father of strength" or "father of understanding," which reflects the valor and wisdom expected of David's elite soldiers. The term "Arbathite" indicates that Abi-albon hailed from the region of Arabah, a desert area stretching from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. This geographical reference suggests that Abi-albon may have been accustomed to harsh conditions, which would have contributed to his resilience and effectiveness as a warrior. The Arabah region is also significant in biblical history as it was part of the territory allotted to the tribe of Judah, linking Abi-albon to the tribe from which David himself descended.

God often uses ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. Courage in Adversity The mighty warriors faced numerous challenges and dangers. Their courage serves as an example for believers to stand firm in faith amidst trials. Unity in Diversity The diverse backgrounds of David's warriors illustrate the strength found in unity. The body of Christ is similarly diverse, yet unified in purpose and mission.(31) Abi-albon.--In 1Chronicles 11:32 written Abiel, probably correctly, the albon having come in from Sha-albon-ite in the line below.
