Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
3:1-24 The genealogy of David continues the genealogy of Ram (2:10-17), which included David as the seventh son of Jesse (2:15). David’s genealogy is divided into three sections: David’s sons (3:1-9); the kings of Judah down to Jehoiachin and Zedekiah (3:10-16), who were exiled to Babylon; and the descendants of Jehoiachin down to the time of the Chronicler (3:17-24). 3:1-9 The list of David’s sons relies on information from Samuel (2 Sam 3:2-5; 5:14-16); the list is divided between sons . . . born while David ruled in Hebron, and those born . . . in Jerusalem.
