Ar'chite, The
(as if from a place named Erech, on the frontiers of Ephraim), the usual designation of David's friend Hushai.
It happened that as David [was] coming up to the summit where he used to worship God, suddenly Hushai the Arkite [was] there to meet him. His coat [was] torn and dirt [was] on his head.
Then Absalom said, "Please call also for Hushai the Arkite, and let us hear {what he has to say} also."
Then Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The advice of Hushai the Arkite [is] better than the advice of Ahithophel." (Now Yahweh had ordained to frustrate the good counsel of Ahithophel in order for Yahweh to bring misery upon Absalom).
