About Eliahba

Eliahba the Shaalbonite is mentioned in 2Sa.23.32 and 1Ch.11.33 as one of David's mighty men. He was part of an elite group of warriors known for their exceptional military skills and bravery. The mighty men played a crucial role in David's military campaigns and helped establish his kingdom. Eliahba's association with Shaalbon, a town in the territory of Dan, suggests that he may have been from that region.
