An adjective describing a person from Bahurim, a village northeast of Jerusalem on the road to the Jordan. The Bachrumite Azmaveth is listed among David's mighty warriors in 2 Samuel 23:31. Bahurim itself is linked to several important narrative moments in David's life.
Bahurim is the place where Shimei son of Gei cursed David during Absalom's rebellion, and where Paltiel wept as Michal was returned to David. Place names in the narrative of David's life serve as theological signposts — Bahurim became a theater of both treachery and faithfulness. That David's mighty man came from this village signals how God transforms places of grief into places of glory. Geography in Scripture is never merely historical — it is the landscape of redemption.
