< | <p> <strong> [[Jerahmeel]] </strong> (‘May [[El]] have compassion!’) 1. [[A]] non-Israelite clan in the extreme [[S.]] of Palestine, with which David cultivated friendly relations during his exile ( 1 Samuel 27:10; 1 Samuel 30:29 ). After Saul’s death the [[Jerahmeelites]] formed part of the little principality over which he reigned in Hebron. How indistinct the recollection of them was appears from the various forms assumed by their name in [[Mss]] of the [[Lxx]] [Note: Septuagint.] : <em> Jesmega, Isramelei, Aermon, Israel, Jeramelei </em> . Subsequently they were considered to have been a Judahite clan ( 1 Chronicles 2:9; 1Ch 2:25 ff., 1 Chronicles 2:35-42 : here Jerahmeel is Caleb’s elder brother; the list of his descendants in 1 Chronicles 2:35-42 is of later origin than 1 Chronicles 2:9; 1 Chronicles 2:25-27 and brings them down to the Chronicler’s day). We have no historical or other records connected with these names, save that [[Molid]] ( 1 Chronicles 2:29 ) is a town mentioned elsewhere ( Joshua 19:2 , Nehemiah 11:26 ). 2. [[Lxx]] [Note: Septuagint.] and Old Lat. read ‘Jerahmeel’ at 1 Samuel 1:1 as the name of Samuel’s grandfather. In all probability the <strong> [[Jeroham]] </strong> of [[Mt]] [Note: Massoretic Text.] is an abbreviated form, like <em> Jacob </em> for <em> Jacob-el </em> , or the <em> Yarkhamu </em> found in a [[Babylonian]] list of Hammurabi’s time. 3. One of the three men ordered by [[Jehoiakim]] to arrest Jeremiah and [[Baruch]] ( Jeremiah 36:26 ). [[Av]] [Note: Authorized Version.] follows Vulg. [Note: Vulgate.] ( <em> filio Amelech </em> ), calling him ‘son of Hammelech’: [[Rv]] [Note: Revised Version.] , with [[Lxx]] [Note: Septuagint.] , ‘the king’s son.’ He was a scion of the royal house, but not necessarily a child of Jehoiakim. 4. In a list of [[Levites]] ( 1 Chronicles 24:20-31 ) drawn up considerably later than that in 1 Chronicles 23:6 ff., Jerahmeel’s name is added as son of [[Kish]] [[(Mt]] [Note: Massoretic Text.] ‘sons’: the text is in a confused state). There must at the time have been a division of Levites called after him, and not, as previously, after Kish. </p> <p> [[J.]] Taylor. </p> | ||

<p> 1. Hezron's firstborn (1 Chronicles 2:9; 1 Chronicles 2:25-27; 1 Chronicles 2:33-42). His descendants occupied southern Judah. | <p> '''1.''' Hezron's firstborn ( 1 Chronicles 2:9; 1 Chronicles 2:25-27; 1 Chronicles 2:33-42). His descendants occupied southern Judah. David pretended to [[Achish]] he had invaded them, but finally he sent them presents of the [[Amalekite]] spoil ( 1 Samuel 27:8; 1 Samuel 27:10; 1 Samuel 30:29). The Geshurites, Gezrites, and [[Amalekites]] dwelt close to southern Judah, so that David's march against them seemed a march against southern Judah. The [[Negeb]] or [[S.]] land lies between the mountains of Judah and the [[Arabian]] desert ( Joshua 15:19-21). The [[Kenites]] occupied the wilderness of Judah [[S.]] of [[Arad]] ( Judges 1:16). The Negeb of Jerahmeel lay [[S.W.]] of Arad, the quarter from which David would pretend to attack them, setting out from the Philistines. It is now er Rakhmah, a corruption of Jerahmeel. The wady er Ramail and Beard, er Ramail, [[S.E.]] of Arad, are traceable to the same name. The Negeb of [[Caleb]] meets the [[Jerahmeelite]] land, as its northern frontier. </p> <p> '''2.''' 1 Chronicles 24:29; 1 Chronicles 23:21. </p> <p> '''3.''' Hammelech's son sent by king Jehoiakim to apprehend Baruch and Jeremiah, "but the Lord hid them" ( Jeremiah 36:26; Psalms 31:20; Psalms 83:3; Isaiah 26:20). Not as margin "son of the king," for he at this time (the fifth year of his reign) had no grown up son; [[Jeconiah]] was then but 11 years old ( 2 Kings 23:36, compare 2 Kings 24:8). </p> | ||
