Two men named Rechab appear in Scripture. One was a captain of raiders under Saul whose sons assassinated Saul's son Ish-bosheth, expecting reward from David but instead being executed. Another Rechab founded an ascetic clan, the Rechabites, whose descendants refused wine and lived a separated life throughout the Old Testament period.
