1 Tawarikh 4:17

4:17 The sons of Ezrah:

Jether, Mered, Epher, and Jalon.

Mered’s wife Bithiah ¹  gave birth to Miriam, Shammai, and Ishbah, the father of Eshtemoa.

1 Tawarikh 6:57

6:57 The descendants of Aaron were also allotted as cities ²  of refuge Hebron, Libnah and its pasturelands, Jattir, Eshtemoa and its pasturelands,

[4:17]  ¹ tn The Hebrew text has simply, “and she gave birth to,” without identifying the subject. The words “Mered’s wife Bithiah” are added in the translation for clarification. See v. 18b, which mentions “Bethiah, whom Mered married.”

[6:57]  ² tn The parallel account in Josh 21:13 has the singular “city,” which apparently refers only to Hebron.
