Commentary

Adam Clarke

Shammah the Harodite - There are several varieties in the names of the following shalishim; which may be seen by comparing these verses with Ch1 11:27.

John Gill

Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite,.... In Ch1 11:35, he is called Eliphal the son of Ur:

Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite; David's counsellor, that went off to Absalom, Sa2 15:12; Eliam his son is supposed, by the Jews, to be the father of Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah, Sa2 11:3; according to Hillerus (q), he is the same with Ahijah the Pelonite, Ch1 11:36.

(q) Onomastic. Sacr. p. 906.
