The sons of Micah
on 1 Chronicles 8:35-40
Micah's line runs through Jehoaddah to Azel, and Azel's six sons are named. The record keeps counting fathers and sons long after the kingdom left Saul's family. The chapter closes on the sons of Ulam, who were mighty men of valor, archers, with 150 sons and grandsons in all.
This site's exposition
Moza was the father of Binea
The double at 1 Chronicles 9:43 names Raphah as Rephaiah and Eleasah as Elasah. Counting from Jonathan, Azel stands in the tenth generation. Saul's house survived his fall.
The record, by era

And Moza begat Binea; Rapha was his son,.... Called Rephaiah, 1Ch 9:43. Elasah his son; whose name is Eleasah, 1Ch 9:43. Azel his son.
They are Jasher, Jeshurun--just ones, and the memory of the just is blessed. Many of these we have reason to fear, came short of everlasting honour (for even the wicked kings of Judah come into the genealogy), yet the perpetuating of their names here was a figure of the writing of the names of all God's spiritual Israel in the Lamb's book of life.
