The eighth captain for the eighth month was Sibbecai the Hushathite, of the Zarhites: and in his course were twenty and four thousand.
Sibbbecai the Hushathite, х Cibªkay (H5444) = mªbunay] - (see 1 Chronicles 11:29; 1 Chronicles 20:4; 2 Samuel 23:27; also 21:18.) "The Hushathite" х ha-Chushaatiy (H2843)]. Whether this epithet indicates the family or the nativity of the individual, it is impossible to say. Hushah (see the note at 1 Chronicles 4:4) was a place or city, and the family of Sibbecai is declared very explicitly to have been the Zarhite clan of Judah (see Numbers 26:20). [Septuagint, Sobochai ho Ousathi; while in 2 Samuel 23:27 this version calls him: ho Asootheitees.]
