(5) Son of David and father of Mahalath, Rehoboam's wife (
2Ch 11:18). He is not mentioned (
2Sa 3:2-5;
5:14-16;
1Ch 3:1-9;
14:4-7) among the sons of David's wives, so Curtis (Ch, 369) thinks that he was either the son of a concubine, or possibly the name is a corruption of "Ithream" (yithream,
1Ch 3:3).
