1 Chronicles 21:15

_ _ stood by the threshing-floor of Ornan the Jebusite — Ornan was probably his Hebrew or Jewish, Araunah his Jebusite or Canaanitish, name. Whether he was the old king of Jebus, as that title is given to him (2 Samuel 24:23), or not, he had been converted to the worship of the true God, and was possessed both of property and influence.

Matthew Henry's Commentary
