Verse 23
And when he went in to his wife ,.... After his grief and sorrow in part at least had subsided:
she conceived and bare a son ; which in some measure made up for the loss he had sustained:
and he called his name Beriah ; which signifies being "in evil" or calamity, he being born in an evil time:
because it went evil with his house ; or evil was in his house, as Noldius F13 Ebr. Concord. Part. No. 750. p. 165. , in his family; a great calamity had befallen it.
