This site's exposition

Hashubah, and Ohel, and Berechiah

on 1 Chronicles 3:20-24

From Zerubbabel's children in verse 20 the list runs four more generations to Anani in verse 24, a remnant with no throne shown that its royal house still has sons and grandsons after the return from Babylon. Some Jewish tradition, recorded by Jarchi and repeated by Adam Clarke, reads the last name Anani as a title reaching toward the Messiah, drawn from Daniel's one like the Son of man coming with the clouds, a reading the text itself does not make and Chronicles does not develop. The chapter that opened with a king's sons born at Hebron closes with an ordinary list of names still going, David's house outliving the kingdom by generations.
