Reference: Hachmoni, Son of the Hachmonite

(1Ch 27:32; 11:11). The former is the correct rendering; the Hebrew in both passages is the same. In 2Sa 23:8 "the Tachmonite" names, in Chronicles given with "son of" (ben), are given without it, but with the definite article. Hachmonite was founder of a family; for the actual father of Jashobeam (a Korhite) was Zabdiel (1Ch 27:2; 12:6).
