| Geneva Study Bible Ozem the sixth, David the seventh: Wesley's Notes 2:15 Seventh - He had eight sons, 1Sam 16:10, but probably one of them died presently after that time. Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary 15. David the seventh-As it appears (1Sa 16:10; 17:12) that Jesse had eight sons, the presumption is from David being mentioned here as the seventh son of his father, that one of them had died at an early age, without leaving issue. Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary 2:1-55 Genealogies. - We are now come to the register of the children of Israel, that distinguished people, who were to dwell alone, and not be reckoned among the nations. But now, in Christ, all are welcome to his salvation who come to him; all have equal privileges according to their faith in him, their love and devotedness to him. All that is truly valuable consists in the favour, peace, and image of God, and a life spent to his glory, in promoting the welfare of our fellow-creatures. |
