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 when David had come to the top [of the ascent], where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn, and earth on his head.
Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear likewise what he says."
Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel." For Yahweh had ordained to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, to the intent that Yahweh might bring evil on Absalom.
