Mishmannah; personal name possibly meaning 'fatness' or 'abundance'
This name belongs to one of David's mighty warriors who joined him at Ziklag when he was fleeing from Saul. These men are described as ambidextrous warriors from the tribe of Benjamin, skilled in battle and fiercely loyal to David even when it was dangerous to support him. The name may derive from roots related to fatness or richness. The Septuagint's varied attempts at rendering this name show the challenges of transliterating Hebrew personal names into Greek.
Senses
1. sense 1 — One of the Benjaminite warriors who joined David at Ziklag according to 1 Chronicles 12:11 (verse 10 in some systems). These were fighting men who defected from Saul's forces to support David during his period as a fugitive. The name appears in a list that emphasizes the military prowess of these early supporters, described as 'mighty men of valor.' The Septuagint's variants (Masemannē, etc.) reflect transliteration difficulties. As one of David's early supporters in his time of danger, Mishmannah was part of the core group whose loyalty helped establish David's eventual kingship. 1×
