ARBITE . The LXX [Note: Septuagint.] ( 2 Samuel 23:35 ) apparently reads ‘the Archite,’ cf. Joshua 16:2 and ‘Hushai the Archite,’ 2 Samuel 15:32; but a place ‘Arab. [Note: Arabic.] , in the S. of Judah, is mentioned Joshua 15:52 . In the parallel passage 1 Chronicles 11:37 we find ‘the son of Ezhai,’ a reading which is supported by several MSS of the LXX [Note: Septuagint.] in 2Sam. l.c. , and is probably correct.
