Verse Takeaways

A Key Translation Detail
One commentator points out a key translation detail: the name 'Beno' is actually the Hebrew word for 'his son.' Therefore, the verse should be read as, 'the sons of Merari by Jaaziah his son were Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.' This clarifies that the list pertains to the sons of Jaaziah, not a separate individual named Beno.
