1 Chronicles 2:47 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 2:47

And the sons of Jahdai
Who is not mentioned by this name before; perhaps the same with Moza, who might have two names, though, according to Hillerus F20, he was the son of Moza; some take it to be the name of another of Caleb's concubines, by whom he had the six following sons: Regem, and Jotham, and Geshan, and Pelet, and Ephah, and Shaaph;
one of these, Pelet perhaps, gave name to Bethpalet in the tribe of Judah, ( Joshua 15:27 ) .
