1 Chronicles 4:20 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 4:20

And the sons of Shimon
Perhaps another son of Mered by his last wife, or the same with Shammai, ( 1 Chronicles 4:17 ) were

Amnon, and Rinnah, Benhanan, and Tilon;
nowhere else mentioned:

and the sons of Ishi:
who it may be was the brother of Shimon or Tilon: were

Zoheth, and Benzoheth;
of whom we know no more than their names.
