of the brooks of Gaash
on 1 Chronicles 11:32-38
The names continue in the same terse form Samuel gives them, men marked only by father, hometown or clan: Hurai of the brooks of Gaash, Ahiam the son of Sacar the Hararite, Eliphal the son of Ur. Chronicles keeps the list exactly as a roll of honor rather than a narrative, each name a life the record holds that the story never mentions again.

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.
