Commentaries on 1 Chronicles 6:28
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 28The first-born Vashni, and Abiah - There is a great mistake in this verse: in 1 Samuel 8:2; we read, Now the name of his (Samuel's) first-born was Joel; and the name of his second Abiah. The word יואל Joel is lost out of the text in this place, and ושני vesheni, which signifies the second, and which refers to Abiah, is made here into a proper name.

The list includes the family trees of: Gershon (1 Chronicles 6:20–21) Kohath (1 Chronicles 6:22–24) Merari (1 Chronicles 6:29–30)Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 16-4816-48. The sons of Levi; Gershom, &c.--This repetition (see 1Ch 6:1) is made, as the historian here begins to trace the genealogy of the Levitical families who were not priests. The list is a long one, comprising the chiefs or heads of their several families until David's reign, who made a new and different classification of them by courses.Read the comment
