Notes

The Chronicler lists the kings of Judah in order, from father to son, starting with Solomon and ending with the exile in Babylon.

The genealogy of David continues from the genealogy of Ram (1 Chronicles 2:10–17), listing David as the seventh son of Jesse (2:15). David’s genealogy has three parts:

  1. David’s sons (1 Chronicles 3:1–9)

  2. The kings of Judah up to Jehoiachin and Zedekiah (1 Chronicles 3:10–16), who were exiled to Babylon

  3. The descendants of Jehoiachin up to the Chronicler's time (1 Chronicles 3:17–24)
