Commentary
2 notes on this verseThis site's exposition
David took more wives in Jerusalem
on 1 Chronicles 14:3-7
The names of the children born to him in Jerusalem repeat the list at 1 Chronicles 3:5 to 8. Clarke counts eleven names in the Hebrew of Samuel, thirteen here, and twenty-four in the Septuagint. The doubling fits the book's practice of keeping every line of David's house on record.
This site's exposition
Ibhar, Elishua, Elpelet
Elpelet here is the Eliphelet of 1 Chronicles 3:6. He and Nogah in verse 6 are the two sons this list has beyond the list in 2 Samuel 5:14 to 16. Nothing further is recorded of either.
