Albert Barnes Commentary 1 Chronicles 3:1

"Now these were the sons of David, that were born unto him in Hebron: the first-born, Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess; the second, Daniel, of Abigail the Carmelitess;" — 1 Chronicles 3:1 (ASV)

The sons of David - The writer returns to the point at which he had left the posterity of Ram (1 Chronicles 2:9, 1 Chronicles 2:15) and traces out the family of David—the royal house of the tribe of Judah.

Daniel - See the marginal note and reference.

There are three lists of the sons of David born in Jerusalem.

A comparison of the three lists serves to show:

1. That “Shimeah” and the first “Elishama” in the list of this chapter are corruptions.
2. That David had 13 sons born in Jerusalem, of whom two—the first Eliphelet and Nogah—probably died in their childhood.
3. That Eliada, the twelfth son, was also called Beeliada, as the term Baal, “lord,” did not have a negative meaning before the introduction of Baal worship, but was regarded as an equivalent of El, “God.”
