Commentary on 1 Chronicles 3:6

• Matthew Henry (Presbyterian), Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary on 1 Chronicles 3:1-9: We had an account of David's sons, Sa2 3:2, etc., and Sa2 5:14, etc. 1. He had many sons; and no doubt wrote as he thought, Psa 127:5. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of these arrows. 2.
• Jamieson-Fausset-Brown (Reformed), Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible on 1 Chronicles 3:6: Elishama and Eliphelet--Two sons of the same name are twice mentioned (Ch1 3:8). They were the children of different mothers, and had probably some title or epithet appended by which the one was distinguished from the other. Or, it might be, that the former two were dead, and their names had been given to sons afterwards born to preserve their memories.
• Geneva Bible Notes (Reformed), Geneva Bible Study Notes on 1 Chronicles 3:6: Ibhar also, and Elishama, and Eliphelet, (d) Elishama, or Elishua, and Eliphelet died, and David named those sons who were born next by the same names; in the book of kings his living children are mentioned and here both they that were alive and dead.
• Adam Clarke (Methodist), Clarke's Commentary on the Bible on 1 Chronicles 3:6: Elishama, and Eliphelet - In this and the eighth verse these two names occur twice; some think this is a mistake, but others suppose that two persons of these names died young, and that the next born received the name of the deceased. - See Jarchi.
