Dodai The words “Eleazar, son of,” have probably fallen out before Dodai (or Dodo). According to Jewish tradition, EIeazar 1Ch 11:12 was cousin to David; his father, Dodai, being Jesse’s brother. Mikloth was probably second in command to Eleazar.

the children of Perez
on 1 Chronicles 27:3-9
Of the twelve captains named month by month, two carry weight beyond the list. Benaiah at the third month is the same man already famous from the mighty men, mighty among the thirty and set above the thirty, so the roster reaches back to a name the reader already knows. Asahel heads the fourth course though he died at the very start of David's reign by Abner's hand; the honor passes to his son Zebadiah, who commands in his father's place.
