1 Chronicles 11:14 -
This, as well as the latter half of the preceding verse, belongs to the account of Shammah the Hararite ( 2 Samuel 23:11 ), and in the parallel the verbs are accordingly in the singular number. In that same place Shammah is called the "son of Agee," which probably answers to the "Shage" of the present chapter ( 1 Chronicles 11:34 ), where our reading should rather be, "Jonathan the son of Shammah the son of Shage, the Hararite." The word "Hararite" designates, according to Gesenius, "one from the hill-country," i.e. the hill-country of Judah or Ephraim, and would be equivalent with us to such a description as "the mountaineer."
