The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 1 Chronicles 3:1-24

Some Strange Names The Sons of David Zerubbabel 1 Chronicles 3:0 Who has not in a foreign hostelry anxiously looked over the visitors' list in the hope that he might find some familiar name, and so put himself upon the track of a friendly predecessor in the journey which he is pursuing? Who has not also wandered through an unknown cemetery, questioning every tombstone, if haply he might detect some name which would awaken the memories of his youth, or connect him with the associations of his... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 3:10-24

The register from Solomon is here made in a correct succession, even to the time beyond the captivity. And it is remarkable how long, David's race, the sceptre continued in his family. It was broken in upon, indeed, at the captivity; but I believe not before seventeen kings had sprung from him in a regular succession from father to son. The childish tradition of the Jews, that Anani, which is the last-mentioned name in this Chapter, meant the king Messiah, because the Prophet Daniel hath a... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - 1 Chronicles 3:24

REFLECTIONS READER! it is hardly possible to read the genealogy of David's race without connecting with it our recollection of David's sorrow in his children. What a grief were many of his branches! Well might he say, Although my house be not so with God! And what is the relief to a sorrowful parent in the contemplation of the degeneracy and impiety of his offspring but what David found; God's covenant love in Jesus. Oh, my brother! if you and I can say as he did, then Shall we find the... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 3:24

Oduia, the 12th from Zorobabel, which shews that this has been inserted since the time of Esdras, and that the author was very careful to preserve the genealogical tables, as it was not known from what family of the descendants of David the Messias should be born. (Calmet) --- St. Matthew gives us a different genealogy. (Du Hamel) (Calmet) read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - 1 Chronicles 3:1-24

The tables now continue to deal with Judah, but have special reference to David. The names of nineteen of his sons are given. Six of them were born in Hebron, and four were the sons of Bathshua. There were nine others. From these nineteen, one, Solomon, is selected; and the descent is traced through him, through the kings of Judah, and right on into the period of captivity. The peculiar quality of the Book of Chronicles is very evidently marked in this chapter in that in the reference to... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - 1 Chronicles 3:1-24

Chapter 3Now we center in on chapter three on David's family and it lists all of the children that were born of David in Hebron there in chapter three. Later we'll get a further list of his children that were born in Jerusalem. Verse five deals with those that were born in Jerusalem. The others were born in Hebron before he was brought to Jerusalem and placed on the throne.And then we get a direct line of David's descendants down to the carrying away into captivity beginning with verse ten.... read more
