Asahel was slain by Abner at the beginning of Davids reign (2Sa. 2:18-23<\/span>). The added clause, And Zebadiah his son after him, evidently refers to this fact. Perhaps the difficult statements about Mikloth and Ammizabad in 1Ch. 27:4<\/span>; 1Ch. 27:6<\/span> were originally similar to this one about Zebadiah.

Asahel the brother of Joab As Asahel was killed before all Israel had acknowledged David as king, it is likely that this course was called the course of Asahel, in honour to his memory, it being commanded by his son. Poole, however, thinks that the foundation of this project was laid while David was in Hebron, and that then his forces were divided into twenty-four courses, under twenty-four chief commanders, whereof Asahel was one, only that the number of his forces was then much less than that which is here mentioned: but, he adds, when David was fully settled in his whole kingdom, the design was perfected, and his soldiers were increased to this number.
