Verse Takeaways

A Son, Not a Name
Scholars like Albert Barnes and Charles Ellicott clarify that 'Beno' is not a proper name. It is the Hebrew word for 'his son.' This means the text should be read as 'the sons of Jaaziah, his son,' connecting Jaaziah's lineage to the names that follow in the next verse. This small detail helps us read the genealogy accurately.
