David has his ‘mighty-men’ 2 Samuel 23:8 These are the names of David's mighty men: Josheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite, was chief of the Three; he raised his spear against eight hundred men, whom he killed in one encounter….

A honeycomb is an array of hexagonal (six-sided) cells, made of wax produced by the worker bees. Hexagons fit together to fill all the available space, giving a strong structure with no gaps.
