Who is like God? (1.) The title given to one of the chief angels "(Dan. 10:13, 21; 12:1). He had special charge of Israel as a" nation. He disputed with Satan (Jude 1:9) about the body of "Moses. He is also represented as warning against "that old" "serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole" "world" (Rev. 12:7-9)." "(2.) The father of Sethur, the spy selected to represent Asher (Num. 13:13). "(3.) 1 Chr. 7:3, a chief of the tribe of Issachar. "(4.) 1 Chr. 8:16, a Benjamite. "(5.) A chief Gadite in Bashan (1 Chr. 5:13). "(6.) A Manassite, "a captain of thousands" who joined David at Ziklag (1 Chr. 12:20). "(7.) A Gershonite Levite (1 Chr. 6:40). (8.) The father of Omri (1 Chr. 27:18). "(9.) One of the sons of king Jehoshaphat (2 Chr. 21:2, 4). He was murdered by his brother Jehoram.

(1.) The queen-mother of King Abijah (2 Chr. 13:2). (See [397]MAACAH [4]). "(2.) One of those sent out by Jehoshaphat to instruct the people in the law (2 Chr. 17:7). (3.) 2 Kings 22:12. "(4.)

A Levite (Neh. 12:35). "(6.) A priest (Neh. 12:41).

"Rivulet, or who as God?, the younger of Saul's two daughters by" "his wife Ahinoam (1 Sam. 14:49, 50). "Attracted by the graces of" "his person and the gallantry of his conduct, she fell in love" "with David and became his wife" (18:20-28). She showed her" affection for him by promoting his escape to Naioth when Saul sought his life (1 Sam. 19:12-17. Comp. Ps. 59. See [398]TERAPHIM). After this she did not see David for many years. "Meanwhile she was given in marriage to another man, Phalti or" "Phaltiel of Gallim (1 Sam. 25:44), but David afterwards formally" reclaimed her as his lawful wife (2 Sam. 3:13-16). The relation between her and David soon after this was altered. They became alienated from each other. This happened on that memorable day when the ark was brought up in great triumph from its temporary resting-place to the Holy City. In David's conduct on that occasion she saw nothing but a needless humiliation of the royal "dignity (1 Chr. 15:29). She remained childless, and thus the" races of David and Saul were not mixed. In 2 Sam. 21:8 her name "again occurs, but the name Merab should probably be here" substituted for Michal (comp. 1 Sam. 18:19).
