2 Samuel23:17
17 And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: is not this the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men .
i. e. The Price of their Blood or Lives, which they rashly exposed to manifest hazard.
Either one of these Three are here omitted, as one of the first Three is not named, 1 Chron. 11. Or Asahel, who follows next, was one of these three.
