- Abishai:
- Heb. Abshai, "And Abishaiª the brotherª of Joab,ª he¹ was¹ chiefª of the three:ª for lifting upª°¹ his spearª against¹ threeª hundred,ª he¹ slewª [them], and had a nameª among the three.ª" {1Ch 11:20} + "Moreover Abishaiª the sonª of Zeruiahª slewª°¹ of the Edomitesª in the valleyª of saltª eighteenªª thousand.ª" {1Ch 18:12}; The variation of אבישׁי [Strong's H0052], Abishai, and אבשׁי [Strong's H0052], Abshai, is simply caused by the elision of י, yood, which is by no means uncommon.
