1 Chronicles 2:34 Meaning and Commentary

1 Chronicles 2:34

Now Sheshan had no sons, but daughters
And but one of that sort, whose name was Ahlai, ( 1 Chronicles 2:31 ) the plural being put here for the singular; or, if that is the name of a son, as some think, he died in his father's lifetime, and left no issue; so that there only remained daughters, and it seems but one by the next verse:

and Sheshan had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Jarha;
one born in his house, and brought up by him, and a proselyte, such an one as Eliezer in Abraham's family.

1 Chronicles 2:34 In-Context

32 The sons of Jada, Shammai’s brother, were Jether and Jonathan. Jether died without children,
33 but Jonathan had two sons named Peleth and Zaza. These were all descendants of Jerahmeel.
34 Sheshan had no sons, though he did have daughters. He also had an Egyptian servant named Jarha.
35 Sheshan gave one of his daughters to be the wife of Jarha, and they had a son named Attai.
36 Attai was the father of Nathan. Nathan was the father of Zabad.
