Ahinoam
        

("brother of grace", i.e. "graceful".) Of Jezreel. David's wife; along with Abigail, accompanied him to Achish's court (1 Samuel 25:43; 1 Samuel 27:3). Taken by the Amalekites at Ziklag, but rescued by David (1 Samuel 30). With him when king in Hebron (2 Samuel 2:2; 2 Samuel 3:2). Mother of Amnon. Beauty was David's snare; the children consequently had more of outward than inward grace.
