    (2) A B enjamite who joined David at Ziklag, or perhaps a Judean ( 1 Chronicles 12:5 (Hebrew 6)).

    (3) In  1 Chronicles 24:30 = Jeremoth , (4) (which see).

    (4) A L evite musician in David's time ( 1 Chronicles 25:4 ).

    (5) Son of David and father of Mahalath, Rehoboam's wife ( 2 Chronicles 11:18 ). He is not mentioned ( 2 Samuel 3:2-5;  2 Samuel 5:14-16;  1 Chronicles 3:1-9;  1 Chronicles 14:4-7 ) among the sons of David's wives, so Curtis ( Ch , 369) thinks that he was either the son of a concubine, or possibly the name is a corruption of "Ithream" (יתרעם , yithre‛ām ,  1 Chronicles 3:3 ).

    (6) A L evite overseer in Hezekiah's time ( 2 Chronicles 31:13 ).
