HIS WIVES. (1-Chronicles 14:3-7)
David took more wives at Jerusalem--(See on 2-Samuel 3:5). His concubines are mentioned (1-Chronicles 3:9), where also is given a list of his children (1-Chronicles 14:5-8), and those born in Jerusalem (2-Samuel 5:14-16). In that, however, the names of Eliphalet and Nogah do not occur, and Beeliada appears to be the same as Eliada.
