- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 39Thirty and seven in all - This reckoning is correct, though only 36 “names” are given, the names of only two of the second triad being recorded, but 31 names are given from 2 Samuel 23:24 to the end, which, added to the two triads, or six, makes 37. Joab as captain of the whole host stands quite alone. In 1 Chronicles 11:41-47; after Uriah the Hittite, there follow sixteen other names, probably the names of those who took the places of those in the former…Read the comment
- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 8-39Verses 8-39 David once earnestly longed for the water at the well of Bethlehem. It seems to be an instance of weakness.

- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 39The very last name mentioned is Uriah the Hittite. There is an earlier reference to his father-in-law, Eliam, father of Bathsheba (2 Samuel 23:34; see 11:3). The writer of Chronicles never mentioned David’s sins against Bathsheba and Uriah. The author of 2 Samuel not only described the sins but also emphasized Uriah’s name by placing it at the end of the list (1 Chronicles 11:10–47). Uriah was not an ordinary soldier. He was a loyal member of David’s…Read the comment

There are thirty-one mentioned in the list, including Asahel; and these added to the two superior orders make thirty-seven.
