    1. A Gershonite, "son" of Jahath and father of Joah (1 Chronicles 6:20); probably the same with the "son" of Shimei and father of Jahath (1 Chronicles 6:42). B.C. post 1874.

At a much earlier period we find the same collocation of names, Zimmah and Joah as father and son (1 Chronicles 6:20). This is but an evidence of the frequent recurrence of the same names in a family (comp.
