Hurai from the brooks of Gaash
on 1 Chronicles 11:32-38
The names continue in the same terse form Samuel gives them. Each man is marked only by father, hometown or clan, as in Hurai from the brooks of Gaash and Ahiam son of Sachar the Hararite. Chronicles keeps the list as a roll of honor.
This site's exposition
Hezro the Carmelite
Hezro the Carmelite came from Carmel in the hill country of Judah, the town of Nabal (1 Samuel 25:2). 2 Samuel 23:35 lists the second of these mighty men as Paarai the Arbite. Naarai and Paarai differ by one Hebrew letter.

3 Therefore came all the elders of Israel to the king to Hebron; and David made a covenant with them in Hebron before the L ORD ; and they anointed David king over Israel, according to the word of the L ORD by Samuel. 4 And David and all Israel went to Jerusalem, which is Jebus; where the Jebusites were, the inhabitants of the land.
