וְאַחֲרָו אֶלְעָזָר בֶּן־[דֹּדוֹ] (דדי) בֶּן־אֲחֹחִי בִּשְׁלֹשָׁה (גברים) [הַגִּבֹּרִים] עִם־דָּוִד בְּחָרְפָם בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים נֶאֶסְפוּ־שָׁם לַמִּלְחָמָה וַֽיַּעֲלוּ אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃
After him was Elozor, the son of Dodo, the son of Achochi, one of the three mighty men that were with Dovid when they humiliated the Pelishtim who had gathered there for war, and the men of Yisroel were gone away.

Rashi
בשלשה הגבורים. המעולים שבגבורים:
One of the three mighty men. Of the best of the mighty men.14There were more then just three men involved in fighting the Pelishtim.
בחרפם בפלשתים. תקעו כף להלחם בהם ולנצחם:
When they humiliated the Pelishtim. They made an agreement with each other to fight them and to vanquish them.
הוּא קָם וַיַּךְ בַּפְּלִשְׁתִּים עַד ׀ כִּֽי־יָגְעָה יָדוֹ וַתִּדְבַּק יָדוֹ אֶל־הַחֶרֶב וַיַּעַשׂ יְהֹוָה תְּשׁוּעָה גְדוֹלָה בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא וְהָעָם יָשֻׁבוּ אַחֲרָיו אַךְ־לְפַשֵּֽׁט׃ {ס}
He got up and struck the Pelishtim until his hand tired and his hand stuck to the sword. Adonoy brought great salvation on that day. The [rest of the] people returned after him but only to strip [the corpses].

Rashi
אך לפשט. תרגם יונתן: לחלצא קטיליא, לא היה איש לעזרו להרוג, אלא כולם פושטים אחריו את החללים:
But only to strip [the corpses]. Yonoson translates: "To strip the dead." There was no one to help him kill [the Pelishtim] but they were all stripping the corpses after [he had killed them].
בן דודו. כך שמו:
The son of Dodo. This was his name.
