Zeruiah

Zeruiah was a sister of King David. According to both the Hebrew Bible and the Babylonian Talmud, Zeruiah was a daughter of Jesse and sister of Abigail, to whom reference is made in 1 Chronicles and 2 Samuel . Zeruiah had three sons, Abishai, Joab, and Asahel, David's nephews, all of whom were soldiers in David's army.
Very little is told of her. Nothing is told about her having a relationship with her brother David. However, her sons are invariably mentioned with the matronymic "son of Zeruiah", in marked contrast to most other Biblical characters who are known by a patronymic. This suggests that she was an exceptionally important person, though the specific circumstances are not given.
Her name is used, though not very frequently, as a female given name in modern Israel.
