Verses 35-41

And Sheshan gave his daughter to Jarha his servant to wife ,.... Having first given him his freedom, as the Targum premises; this daughter seems to be Ahlai, 1 Chronicles 2:31 which receives confirmation from Zabad, one of the descendants of this man, 1 Chronicles 2:36 , being said to be the son of Ahlai, 1 Chronicles 11:41 , that is, great-grandson:

and she bare him Attai ; the genealogy of whose descendants is given to the end of 1 Chronicles 2:41 , of whom no mention is made elsewhere, but of Zabad, as before observed; and, according to the Jews, it is given for the sake of Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, the last person mentioned in this genealogy; which Ishmael slew Gedaliah governor of Jerusalem, and is said to be of the seed royal, Jeremiah 41:1 .
