דברי הימים א, פרק כ״ז, פסוק י״ג

The military organization of the kingdom relied on a rotating system of leadership, with a specific commander assigned to each month of the year. For the tenth month, the responsibility of leading the division was given to Maharai the Netophathite, who belonged to the Zerahite family. Under his command stood a force of twenty-four thousand men. While ancient manuscript traditions contain minor variations regarding the exact pronunciation of his name, [מנחת שי] notes that he is the same leader documented earlier in the historical records.
