Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite
In (1 Chronicles 11:35) , he is called Eliphal the son of Ur:
Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite ;
David's counsellor, that went off to Absalom, (2 Samuel 15:12) ; Eliam his son is supposed, by the Jews, to be the father of Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah, (2 Samuel 11:3) ; according to Hillerus F17 , he is the same with Ahijah the Pelonite, (1 Chronicles 11:36) .
