hā´rod - ı̄t ( חרדי , ḥărōdhı̄ ): Two of David's heroes, Shamma and Elika, are so called ( 2 Samuel 23:25 ). Septuagint omits the second name. In 1 Chronicles 11:27 , the first is called "Shammoth the Harorite," while the second is omitted. "Harorite" is a clerical error for "Harodite," the Hebrew letter daleth ד ("d") being taken for the Hebrew letter resh ר ("r"). Possibly Harodite may be connected with the well of HAROD (which see).
