수레가 벧세메스 사람 여호수아의 밭 큰 돌 있는 곳에 이르러 선지라 무리가 수레의 나무를 패고 그 소를 번제로 여호와께 드리고
Rashi
Chieil of Beis Eil. [I.e.,] Chieil who was from Beis Eil, similar to, “Yishay of Beis Lechem [בית הלחמי],”7I Shmuel 16:1. and it does not state הבית לחמי, and similarly, “Yehoshua of Beis Shemesh [בית השמשי],”8I Shmuel 6:14. in the Book of Shmuel, and [it does] not [state] הבית שמשי, and similarly, “In Ofrah [that belonged to Yoash] of the Avi Ezri [אבי העזרי],”9Shoftim 6:11. and it does not state האבי עזרי. Some interpret בית האלי [is from the word אלה or curse], since he accepted upon himself Yehoshua’s curses, “Cursed [before Adonoy] be the man who rises up and rebuilds, etc.”10Yehoshua 6:26. Also, see Maseches Sanhedrin 113a. Our Rabbis stated that Chieil was of [the tribe of] Binyomin, and Yericho belonged to Yehoshofot11Who was of the tribe of Binyomin. [King of Yehudah]. Why does [Scripture] relate him to Achov [King of Yisroel], because a curse is related to a corrupt person.12Talmud Yerushalmi Maseches Sanhedrin 10:2. Alternatively, even though Achov witnessed Divine retribution visited upon Chieil, Achov nonetheless did not repent.—Metzudas Dovid. (Other texts: To a cursed person.)
