Father's influence on Benaiah
Jehoiada raised his son Benaiah, who became one of David's three most powerful warriors and performed many heroic deeds.
20Benaiah son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man from Kabzeel, was a doer of great deeds. He struck down the two champions of Moab, and he went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion.
וּבְנָיָ֨הוּ בֶן־יְהוֹיָדָ֧ע בֶּן־אִֽישׁ־*חי **חַ֛יִל רַב־פְּעָלִ֖ים מִֽקַּבְצְאֵ֑ל ה֣וּא הִכָּ֗ה אֵ֣ת שְׁנֵ֤י אֲרִאֵל֙ מוֹאָ֔ב וְ֠הוּא יָרַ֞ד וְהִכָּ֧ה אֶֽת־*האריה **הָאֲרִ֛י בְּת֥וֹךְ הַבֹּ֖אר בְּי֥וֹם הַשָּֽׁלֶג׃
22Such were the deeds of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he won a name among the three mighty men.
