Ar'chite, The
(as if from a place named Erech, on the frontiers of Ephraim), the usual designation of David's friend Hushai.
When David came to the summit where he used to worship God, there to meet him was Hushai the Archite with his robe torn and dust on his head.
Then Absalom said, "Summon Hushai the Archite also. Let's hear what he has to say as well."
Since the Lord had decreed that Ahithophel's good advice be undermined in order to bring about Absalom's ruin, Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than Ahithophel's advice."
