Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of 1 Chronicles 4:20

And the sons of Shimon [were], Amnon, and Rinnah, Ben-hanan, and Tilon. And the sons of Ishi [were], Zoheth, and Ben-zoheth.

Shimon; another son of the father of Keilah, mentioned 1Ch 4:19.

Ishi; son of Tilon last mentioned.

And the sons of Shimon,…. Perhaps another son of Mered by his last wife, or the same with Shammai, 1Ch 4:17 were

Amnon, and Rinnah, Benhanan, and Tilon; nowhere else mentioned:

and the sons of Ishi: who it may be was the brother of Shimon or Tilon: were

Zoheth, and Benzoheth; of whom we know no more than their names.

(20) The Sons of Shimon.Nothing is said elsewhere of them, or of the sons of Ishi. Ishi (1Ch. 2:31) is a Jerahmeelite name; but/as throughout tho section (1Ch. 4:2-19) we have found indications that the ramifications of the house of Caleb are the principal subject, and as 1Ch. 4:20 is appended to the rest, without any opposing remark, it, is highly probable that it also refers to some Calebite clans and towns.

Shimon: Shimon is supposed to have been another son of Mered, by Jehudijah. As this latter name signifies a Jewess, it rather favours the opinion that Bithiah was not a Jewess, but an Egyptian.
