Explaining Name Variations
Commentators explain that the name 'Jehoaddah' in this verse appears as 'Jarah' in a parallel list in 1 Chronicles 9:42. This is not seen as a contradiction but as a common scribal error, as the Hebrew letters for 'd' and 'r' are visually similar and could be easily confused during transcription. This helps explain minor variations found in biblical genealogies.
