Ashur the father of Tekoa had two wives
on 1 Chronicles 4:5-8
Ashur the father of Tekoa carries two households through his two wives, and the list traces both without comment on the polygamy the patriarchal age tolerated. Coz, born of Helah, is the ancestor the next two verses use to introduce Jabez, since the family of Aharhel his son leads directly into the more famous name.

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.
