Notes

This part of David's family tree goes up to about 400 BC.

1 Chronicles 3:1–24

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)
