1-а хроніки 3:5

These were all the sons of David,.... By his wives: beside the sons of the concubines; who are not reckoned, and how many they were is not known; he had ten concubines at least, Sa2 15:16 and Sa2 20:3. And Tamar their sister; not the sister of the sons of the concubines, but of his other sons, and only of Absalom by the mother's side, of whom see Sa2 13:1.

Of all the families of Israel none was so illustrious as the family of David. That is the family which was mentioned in the foregoing chapter (Ch1 3:15). Here we have a full account of it. I. David's sons (Ch1 3:1-9). II. His successors in the throne as long as the kingdom continued (Ch1 3:10-16). III. The remains of his family in and after the captivity (Ch1 3:17-24). From this family, "as concerning the flesh, Christ came."
