<p> (1 Chronicles 11:29; 1 Chronicles 27:11) or Sib'bechai (2 Samuel 21:18; 1 Chronicles 20:4) [some Sibbeca'i and Sibbecha'i] (Heb. Sibbekay', סַבְּכִי , according to [[Gesenius]] and Furst for סֶבֶךְ יָהּ, thicket [i.e. people] of Jehovah, or | <p> ( 1 Chronicles 11:29; 1 Chronicles 27:11) or Sib'bechai ( 2 Samuel 21:18; 1 Chronicles 20:4) [some Sibbeca'i and Sibbecha'i] (Heb. Sibbekay', סַבְּכִי '','' according to [[Gesenius]] and Furst for סֶבֶךְ יָהּ, thicket [i.e. people] ''of Jehovah, or Jehovah'' is ''a thicket'' [i.e. defense]; but rather a ''weaver,'' for it is doubtful if the final י in such cases ever stands for the sacred name; Sept. Σοβοχαί v.r. Σεβοχά, etc.; [[Josephus]] Σοβακχίς ), the eighth named of the subordinate thirty in David's guard, and eighth captain for the eighth month of 24,000 men of the king's army ( 1 Chronicles 11:29; 1 Chronicles 27:11). [[B.C.]] 1043. He belonged to one of the principal families of Judah, the Zarhites, or descendants of Zerah, and is called "the Hushathite," probably from an ancestor by the name of [[Hushah]] (q.v.). Josephus (''Ant.'' 7, 12, 2) calls him "the Hittite," but this is no doubt an error. Sibbecai's great exploit, which gave him a place among the mighty mean of David's army, was his single combat with Saph, or Sippai, the Philistine giant, in the battle at Gezer, or Gob ( 2 Samuel 21:18; 1 Chronicles 20:4). In 2 Samuel 23:27 his name is written [[Mebunnai]] by a mistake of the copyist. Josephus says that he slew "many" who boasted that they were of the descent of the giants, apparently reading רבי for ספי in 1 Chronicles 20:4. </p> | ||
