Reference: Eliam

God's people. (1.) The father of Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah (2Sa 11:3). In 1Ch 3:5 his name is Ammiel.

(2.) This name also occurs as that of a Gilonite, the son of Ahithophel, and one of David's thirty warriors (2Sa 23:34). perhaps these two were the same person.

("God is my people") (2Sa 23:34). Son of Ahithophrl and father of Bathsheba; (2Sa 11:3). (See AHITHOPHEL; BATHSHEBA.) Ammiel (by transposition) in 1Ch 3:5, and Bathshua, non-Israelite names. Uriah was a Hittite (Ge 38:2,12; 1Ch 2:3).

1. Father of Bathsheba, whose first husband was a Hittite, 1Sa 11:3 (= 1Ch 3:5, where Eliam is called Ammiel). 2. Son of Ahithophel the Gilonite, and one of David's heroes (2Sa 23:34). It is not impossible that this Eliam is the same as the preceding.
