This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





In 1Ch_11:27,



Shammoth the Harorite; concerning which and such-like alterations, and other changes of the names, which will be observed by comparing this catalogue with that, it will be sufficient to suggest,



1. That the same names of persons or places are differently pronounced, according to the different dialects used by men of divers places or ages.



2. That one man had oft two names.



3. That David had more worthies than those here mentioned; and as some of these were slain in the former part of David’s reign, as Asahel was; so others came up in their steads; and some were added to this number, as appears from 1Ch 11, where they are named, but not numbered, as they were here; and where there is a greater number than is here expressed.
