2 Samuel 19:32

Now Barzillai was a very aged man, even fourscore years old: and he had provided the king of sustenance while he lay at Mahanaim; for he was a very great man.

Cross-reference

2 Samuel 17:27 first mentions Barzillai among David's suppliers. Here his specific provision is highlighted, linking the two references.

Joshua 21:38 identifies Mahanaim as a Levitical city of refuge, where Barzillai hosted David.

Proverbs 16:31 calls gray hair a crown of glory gained in righteousness. Barzillai's old age and loyal service to David exemplify that honor.
