Tachmonite
Tachmonite
(Heb. [without the art.] Tcchemoni, ; Sept. v.r. ; Vulg. sapientissimus). The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among David’s captains (2Sa 23:8), is in 1Ch 11:11 called Jashobeam a Hachmonite, or, as the margin gives it, son of Hachmoni. The Geneva version has in 2Sa 23:8, He that sate in the seate of wisedome, being chiefe of the princes, was Adino of Ezni, regarding Tachmonite as an adjective derived from
, chakm, wise, and in this derivation following Kimchi. Kennicott has shown, with much appearance of probability, that’ tie words , yosheb bashshibeth, he that sat in the seat, are a corruption of Jashobeam, the true name of the hero, and that the mistake arose from an error of the transcriber, who carelessly inserted from the previous verse where it occurs. He further considers Tcchemoni a corruption of the appellation in Chronicles, son of Hachmoni, which was the family or local name of Jashobeam. The name here in Samuel was at first , the article at the beginning having been corrupted into a ; for the word in Chronicles is regularly supplied in Samuel by that article (Dissert. p. 82). Therefore he concludes Jashobeam the Hachmonite to have been the true reading. Josephus (Ant. 7:12, 4) calls him , which favors Kennicott’s emendsation. In these corrections Keil (Comment. ad loc.) concurs. SEE HACHMONI; SEE JASHOBEAM.
