Tah-che'monite is a term found in the Old Testament, specifically in the context of King David's mighty warriors. The reference to Tah-che'monite appears in 1 Chronicles 11:11, where it is associated with Jashobeam, one of David's elite soldiers. The Berean Standard Bible translates this passage as follows: "This is the list of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam son of Hachmoni was chief of the officers; he wielded his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed at one time."

The term "Tah-che'monite" is understood to be a designation related to Jashobeam's lineage or place of origin. The Hebrew word "תַּחְכְּמֹנִי" (Tachkemoni) is often translated as "Hachmonite" in other versions of the Bible, indicating a possible connection to a family or clan name. The exact meaning and origin of the term remain somewhat obscure, but it is generally accepted to denote a distinguished or wise lineage, as the root of the word is related to wisdom or skill.

Jashobeam, the Tah-che'monite, is noted for his exceptional bravery and skill in battle, making him a prominent figure among David's mighty men. His feat of killing three hundred men with his spear in a single encounter highlights the extraordinary valor and martial prowess that characterized David's elite warriors. This act of heroism is emblematic of the divine favor and strength that God bestowed upon David's army, enabling them to achieve remarkable victories.

The mention of Jashobeam as a Tah-che'monite underscores the importance of lineage and heritage in the biblical narrative, reflecting the broader theme of God's providential guidance and the establishment of David's kingdom. The mighty men, including Jashobeam, played a crucial role in securing David's reign and expanding the territory of Israel, fulfilling God's promises to David and his descendants.

In the broader context of Scripture, the account of David's mighty men, including the Tah-che'monite, serves as a testament to the faithfulness and courage required to fulfill God's purposes. These warriors exemplify the qualities of loyalty, strength, and dedication that are celebrated throughout the biblical narrative, offering a model of godly leadership and service.Tah-che'monite (1 Occurrence)
