About Pelet
Pelet was a Benjamite warrior who, along with his brother Berachah, joined David at Ziklag, according to 1Ch.12.3. They were among the mighty warriors who helped David in battle and were known for their skill with the bow. The brothers were sons of Azmaveth, suggesting they came from a family of warriors. Their support of David likely came during the time when he was fleeing from King Saul and gathering a loyal following. The mention of Pelet and his brother highlights the diverse group of warriors who supported David and helped him establish his kingdom.
