2 Samuel 23:26

Helez the Paltite Generally explained to mean of Beth-pelet, an unid entified town in the extreme south of Judah, named in the same group with Beer-sheba (Joshua 15:27). But this seems questionable, as he is called an Ephraimitein 1 Chronicles 27:10; 1 Chronicles 27:1 Chron. twice reads Pelonite(1 Chronicles 11:27; 1 Chronicles 27:10), but there is no known place or family from which such a name could be formed, and it is either a corruption, or the Hebrew word meaning of so and so, inserted by a scribe who could not read the original word in the text which he was copying. Helez was general of the seventh division of the army (1 Chronicles 27:10).

Ira … the Tekoite Of Tekoa, see note on ch. 2 Samuel 14:2. He was general of the sixth division of the army (1 Chronicles 27:9), and a different person from David's minister (ch. 2 Samuel 20:26).
