Asahel the brother of Joab
on 1 Chronicles 11:26-31
The roll opens with Asahel the brother of Joab, killed in 2 Samuel 2:23. Chronicles' list numbers forty-seven names against Samuel's thirty-one at 2 Samuel 23:24 to 39. Four names appear only here and five only there, and the rest vary enough that one original list could stand behind both.
This site's exposition
Sibbecai the Hushathite
2 Samuel 23:27 to 28 has Mebunnai where Chronicles has Sibbecai, and Zalmon for Ilai. Sibbecai killed a descendant of the giants in 1 Chronicles 20:4. Ilai shares the Ahohite clan with Eleazar of verse 12.
