more concubines and wives
on 2 Samuel 5:13-16
David takes concubines and wives in Jerusalem, though the law for Israel's king says, “He must not take many wives for himself”, at Deuteronomy 17:17. The sons born there are named, among them Nathan and Solomon, both sons of Bathsheba by 1 Chronicles 3:5.

Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia
Gill notes that Elishua is called Elishama in 1 Chronicles 3:6. Clarke gives the Septuagint names for Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg and Japhia as Ebear, Elisue, Naphek and Jephies. Clarke finds some corruption in these names.
