Where it appears

Appears 12 times in the Bible.

2 Samuel 17:27 When David arrived at Mahanaim, he was warmly greeted by Shobi son of Nahash, who came from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and by Makir son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and by Barzillai of Gilead from Rogelim.
2 Samuel 19:31 Barzillai of Gilead had come down from Rogelim to escort the king across the Jordan.
2 Samuel 19:32 He was very old—eighty years of age—and very wealthy. He was the one who had provided food for the king during his stay in Mahanaim.
2 Samuel 19:33 “Come across with me and live in Jerusalem,” the king said to Barzillai. “I will take care of you there.”
2 Samuel 19:34 “No,” he replied, “I am far too old to go with the king to Jerusalem.
2 Samuel 19:39 So all the people crossed the Jordan with the king. After David had blessed Barzillai and kissed him, Barzillai returned to his own home.
