Old Testament
Azmaveth
A valiant warrior among David's Mighty Men and an overseer of the king's royal treasuries.
Azmaveth was one of David's elite warriors, listed among the Thirty in 2 Samuel 23:31. Later, 1 Chronicles 27:25 identifies an Azmaveth, son of Adiel, who served as the official in charge of King David's royal storehouses. While these references likely refer to the same individual, the text confirms his dual role as both a soldier of renown and a trusted administrator of the kingdom's resources.
