Ashurites
VIEW:50 DATA:01-04-2020
ASHURITES.One of the tribes over whom Ishbosheth ruled (2Sa_2:9). The name is clearly corrupt, for neither the Assyrians (Asshur) nor the Arabian tribe Asshurim (Gen_25:3) can be intended. The Pesh. and Vulg. [Note: Vulgate.] read the Geshurites, whose territory bordered on that of Gilead (Jos_12:5; Jos_13:11), and who might therefore be suitably included here. It has been urged, however, against this view, that Geshur was an independent kingdom at this time (cf. 2Sa_3:3; 2Sa_13:37), so that Ishbosheth could not have exercised control over it. We should probably read hâ-Ashçri the Asherites, i.e. the tribe of Asher (cf. Jdg_1:32).
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible
Edited by James Hastings, D.D. Published in 1909
Ruled by Ishbosheth (2Sa_2:9). Arab., Syr., and Vulgate versions have it the Geshurites S.E. of Damascus. But these had Talmai as their king, whose daughter David married about this time (1Ch_3:2; 1Ch_3:4). The Targum of Jonathan reads Beth Asher, "the house of Asher," so also several Hebrew manuscripts The Asherites will then be the whole country W. of Jordan above Jezreel and the plain of Esdraelon. Thus the enumeration begins with the N. and ends with Benjamin on the S. Bachienne suggests the city "Asher" (Jos_17:7), S.E. of Jezreel.

ash?ur-ı̄ts (האשׁוּרי, hā-'ăshūrı̄): According to the Massoretic Text of 2Sa_2:9, a tribe included in the short-lived kingdom of Ish-bosheth, Saul's son. A slight textual correction gives ?Asherites,? that is, the tribe of Asher; with this the Targum of Jonathan agrees. The tribe of Asher lay where it would naturally fall to Ish-bosheth's kingdom. The reading ?Geshurites? (Vulgate and Syriac) is excluded by the known independence Of Geshur at this time (2Sa_3:3; 2Sa_13:37). For similar reasons we cannot think of Assyria (Hebrew Asshur) nor of the Arabic Asshurim of Gen_25:3.
