# Abishai son of Zeruiah

Abishai and Zeruiah are names of men. See how you translated these names in [2 Samuel 2:18](../02/18.md).

# you do not put out the lamp of Israel

The "lamp of Israel" is a metaphor that refers to David's leadership and the idea that if David were to die, the people of Israel would have no clear direction. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
