1 Chronicles3:3
3 The fifth, Shephatiah of Abital: the sixth, Ithream by Eglah his wife .
Which Title belongs either to all the foregoing Women, or rather, as the singular number sheweth, to Eglah onely, last mentioned: who possibly may be so called because she was his first, and therefore most proper, Wife, though her son was born after all the rest before-mentioned, and therefore both she and her Son are put in the sixth place, the Wives being here named onely for the Sons sakes.
