Fausets

An Egyptian; servant or slave of Sheshan of Judah, about the time of Eli; married Sheshun's daughter Ahlai, Sheshun having no sons (1Ch 2:34). An extraordinary occurrence. Jarha was forefather of a chief house of the Jerahmeelites, which lasted at least until Hezekiah's time, and of which sprung Zabad and Azariah. (See ZABAD; AZARIAH.) Ahlai's descendants were called after her, as Joab, Abishai, and Asahel are called "the sons of Zeruiah" (1Ch 2:16). It is an undesigned coincidence, confirming the Bible record, that the Jerahmeelites dwelt on the S. of Judah nearest Egypt, so that an Egyptian servant might naturally be in a Jerahmeelite family, such as Sheshan's was (1Sa 27:10).
