This site's exposition

Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives

on 1 Chronicles 4:5-8

Ashhur the father of Tekoa had two wives, Helah and Naarah. The list traces both households. Koz, a son of Helah, is named in verse 8, just before the account of Jabez in verse 9.

This site's exposition

Naarah bore to him Ahuzzam

Naarah's four sons are listed before Helah's, though verse 5 names Helah first. The names mark families of Tekoa, the town Ashhur founded or ruled in 2:24. Nothing else is recorded of them.

The record, by era

And Naarah bare him Ahuzam, and Hepher, and Temeni, and Haahashtari,.... Of whom we have no account elsewhere: these were the sons of Naarah; the second wife of Ashur.
