This 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

Elishama, Beeliada, and Eliphelet

Beeliada appears as Eliada in 2 Samuel 5:16 and in 1 Chronicles 3:8. The first form joins baal, meaning lord, to a verb meaning knows, and the second joins El, God, to the same verb. The name Eliphelet appears twice in 1 Chronicles 3:6 to 8.
