Berachah, meaning blessing, names two different things in Chronicles. One of the Benjamite warriors who joined David at Ziklag, kinsmen of Saul, was named Berachah (1 Chr. 12:3). Unrelated to him, the Valley of Berachah near Tekoa was where King Jehoshaphat's army gathered to bless the Lord after a stunning, unfought victory over an invading coalition of Moabites and Ammonites (2 Chr. 20:26).
