“Shammoth: Shammah, Shammoth, and as it is in Ch1 27:8, Shamhuth, having all the same signification, appear to have been deemed perfectly interchangeable, and accordingly used indifferently. Sa2 23:25, Shammah the Harodite Harorite: The variation of חרורי \[Strong's H2033\], Harorite, for חרדי \[Strong's H2733\], Harodite, arises from the mutation of ר, raish, and ד, daleth. Pelonite: Sa2 23:26, Paltite 1 Chronicles 11:28”
