Usage: Maharai is used as a proper name for a specific individual in the Hebrew Bible. Context: Maharai is identified as one of King David's mighty warriors, specifically listed among the "Thirty" in the elite group of David's military men. He is described as a Zerahite from the tribe of Judah. Maharai is mentioned in two key passages: • 2 Samuel 23:28: "Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite." • 1 Chronicles 11:30: "Maharai the Netophathite, Heled son of Baanah the Netophathite." Maharai's designation as a Netophathite suggests he hailed from the town of Netophah, which was located near Bethlehem in the territory of Judah. His inclusion in the list of David's mighty men highlights his valor and significant role in David's military campaigns. The mention of Maharai in these passages underscores the importance of loyalty and bravery among David's warriors, who were instrumental in establishing and securing his kingdom.
