Scholarly Analysis and Interpretation.

Abiezer the Anethothite, (n) Mebunnai the Hushathite,
(n) Some of these had two names, (1-Chronicles 11:29) and also many more are mentioned there.

Abiezer the Anethothite,.... He was of Anathoth, in the tribe of Benjamin, Joshua 21:18, the birthplace of Jeremiah the prophet, Jeremiah 1:1,
Mebunnai the Hushathite; the same with Sibbecai, 1-Chronicles 11:29; this man had two names, and was a descendant of Hushah, who came of Judah, 1-Chronicles 4:4.

Abiezer of Anathoth (Anata) in Benjamin (see at Joshua 18:24), chief of the ninth division of the army (1-Chronicles 27:12). Mebunnai is a mistake in spelling for Sibbechai the Hushathite (compare 2-Samuel 21:18 and 1-Chronicles 11:29). According to 1-Chronicles 27:11, he was chief of the eighth division of the army.
