International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [4]

ab - i - al´bon , ā´bi - al´bon ( אבו עלבון 'ăbhı̄ ‛alebhōn , meaning not known. Gesenius infers from the Arabic a stem which would give the meaning "father of strength," and this is at worst not quite so groundless as the conjectures which explain ‛alebhōn as a textual misreading for 'ēl or ba‛al ): Abi-albon the Arbathite was one of David's listed heroes ( 2 Samuel 23:31 ), called Abiel the Arbathite in  1 Chronicles 11:32 . Presumably he was from Beth-arabah ( Joshua 15:6 ,  Joshua 15:61;  Joshua 18:22 ).
