JASHEN.—The sons of Jashen are mentioned in the list of David’s heroes given in 2Sa_23:32. In the parallel list (1Ch_11:34) they appear as the sons of Hashem, who is further described as the Gizonite (wh. see).

2Sa_23:32; but in 1Ch_11:34 HASHEM ("the Name"' used by Othordox Jews instead of uttering the ineffable name of Yahweh.) Kennicott reads, "of the sons of Hashem, Gouni; Jonathan the son of Shamha."

Ja'shen. (sleeping). Bene-Jashen, (that is, sons of Jashen), are named in the catalogue of the heroes, of David's guard in 2Sa_23:32. (B.C. 1046).
Smith's Bible Dictionary
By Dr. William Smith.Published in 1863


jā?shen, jash?en (ישׁן, yāshēn, ?asleep?(?)): Seemingly the father of some of David s thirty valiant men (2Sa_23:32 f). The Massoretic Text reads ?Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Jashen, Jonathan, Shammah the Hararite,...? 1Ch_11:33 has Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Hashem the Gizonite, Jonathan the son of Shagee the Hararite ...? It is clear that ?sons of? are a dittography of the last three consonants of the previous word. Septuagint, Lucian in 2 Samuel and 1 Chronicles has ὁ Γουνί, ho Gounı́, ?the Gunite,? for ?the Gizonite,? perhaps correctly (compare Gen_46:24; Num_26:48 for ?Guni,? ?Gunite?). So 2Sa_23:32 may be corrected thus: ?Eliahba the Shaalbonite, Jashen the Gunite, Jonathan the son of Shammah the Hararite.? Jashen then becomes one of the thirty = ?Hashem? of 1Ch_11:34.

Jashen
(Heb. Yashen'. יָשֵׁן, sleeping, as in Son_7:10, etc.; Septuag. Ι᾿ασέν v.r. Α᾿σάν), a person, several of whose “sons” are named as among David's famous bodyguard (2Sa_23:32), called in the parallel passage HASHEM the Gizonite (1Ch_11:34). Other discrepancies also occur between the two passages: the former names three, while the latter makes the first (Jonathan) son of the next, and both (with slight verbal variations) assign special patronymics to the last two. Perhaps the two accounts may best be reconciled by understanding the two braves referred to as being Jonathan BenShammah (or Ben-Shageh), and Ahiam Ben-Sharar (or Ben-Sacar), grandsons of Jashen (or Hashem) of Gizon, in the mountains of Judah hence called Hararites. B.C. considerable ante 1046. This name Kennicott believes (Dissertation, i, 201-3) lies concealed in the word rendered “the Gizonite” in Chronicles, and accordingly proposes to read in both places “Gouni, of the sons of Hashem; Jonathan, the son of Shamha the Hararite “his view being supported by the Alex. copy of the Sept., which reads υἱοὶ Α᾿σὰμ ὁ Γωϋνὶ Ι᾿ωνάθαν νίὸς Σαγὴ ὀ Α᾿ραρί. However, the want of the מbefore בְנֵי, and the הprefixed to the name read by him as Goumni are objections to this view, and Bertheau may probably be right (Chronik. p. 134), that בַנֵיis due to a repetition of the last three letters of the preceding word, “the Shaalbonite” (הִשִׁעִלבֹנַי), and that we should simply read Hashem the Gizonite. In the list given by Jerome, in his Quaestiones Hebraicae, Jashen and Jonathan are both omitted. SEE DAVID.
