Verse 18. Malchiram also] Calmet supposes we should read here, And the sons of Salathiel were Malchiram and Pedaiah, &c.

Malchiram also, and Pedaiah: the sentence seems to be short and imperfect, as is frequent in the Hebrew language, and something is here understood, as, the sons also of Salathiel were Malchiram and Pedaiah, &c., as they gather from hence, that the same Zerubbabel is called the son of Pedaiah, 1Ch 3:19, and the son (i.e. the grandson) of Salathiel, Mat 1:12. Or Malchiram and the rest here named were the sons of Jeconiah; and they are differing Zerubbabels, which are mentioned here, 1Ch 3:19; Mat 1:12; Luk 3:27; of which see the notes on those places.

18. Malchiram alsoAs far asJeconiah, everything is plain; but there is reason to suspect thatthe text in the subsequent verses has been dislocated anddisarranged. The object of the sacred historian is to trace the royalline through Zerubbabel; yet, according to the present reading, thegenealogical stem cannot be drawn from Jeconiah downwards. Thefollowing arrangement of the text is given as removing alldifficulties [DAVIDSON,Hermeneutics]: 1Ch 3:17.And the sons of Jeconiah the the captive, Salathiel (Shealtiel,Ezr 3:2; Neh 12:1;Hag 1:12; Hag 1:14;Hag 2:2) his son. 1Ch3:18. And the sons of Salathiel; Zerubbabel and Shimei; and thesons of Zerubbabel; Meshullam, Hananiah, and Shelomith their sister.1Ch 3:19. And Hashubah, andOhel, and Berechiah, and Hasadiah, Jushab-hezed. 1Ch3:20. And Malchiram, and Rephaiah, and Shenazar, Jecamiah,Hoshama, and Nedabiah. 1Ch 3:21.The sons of Hananiah; Pelatiah and Jesaiah; the sons of Rephaiah; hisson Arnan, his son Obadiah, his son Shecaniah.

Malchiram also,…. That is, was a son of Jeconiah as well as Salathiel, and so the rest that follow:
and Pedaiah, and Shenazar, Jecamiah, Hoshama, and Nedabiah; Kimchi says these were the sons of Salathiel; but I rather think they were the sons of Jeconiah, and brethren of Salathiel, because of what follows.

(18) Malchiram also, and Pedaiah.According to our present Hebrew text these six persons, arranged as two trios, are sons of Jeconiah, and brothers of Shealtiel.
ShenazarHeb., Shenazzar; LXX., is a compound Babylonian name, like Belteshazzar (Dan. 1:7), of which the last part means protect, and the first is, perhaps, Sin (comp. ), the moon-god. Such a name as Sin protect may well have been given to this Jewish prince at the court of Babylon, just as Daniel and his three companions received idolatrous designations of the same sort from Nebuchadnezzar. This fact seems to support our rendering of the word Assir (1Ch. 3:17).
Hoshama.A contraction of Jehoshama (Iahweh hath heard), like Coniah for Jeconiah.

Ver. 18. Malchiram also. ] It is doubtful whether these were the sons of Jeconiah, or of Salathiel.

1Ch 3:18-19. Malchiram also, and Pedaiah These were the sons of Salathiel: and there is therefore something to be supplied, to make the sense of this verse plain; namely, The sons of Salathiel were Malchiram, &c. The sons of Pedaiah, Zerubbabel, &c. But, Luk 3:27, Zerubbabel is called the son of Salathiel; and therefore he must have been the son of Pedaiah only by adoption; or else Salathiel dying without children, Pedaiah begat Zerubbabel of his wife, and so raised up seed to his brother. Thus Zerubbabel was the son of Pedaiah, because begotten by him, and yet the son of Salathiel, because begotten of his wife to be his heir. Shelomith their sister Sister to the last two named sons of Zerubbabel, namely, by both parents; and therefore named before the other five, (1Ch 3:20,) who were her brethren by the father, but not by the mother.
