firstborn3 parallels

  • 1 Chronicles 5:1
  • Leviticus 27:26
  • Genesis 14:20 Here there is an ellipsis of the name of the firstborn , which the margin correctly supplies as Joel. The word Vashni when otherwise pointed means "second ," so that the #### Verse more properly reads "And the sons of Samuel; the firstborn (Joel) and the second Abiah."

Vashni2 parallels

i.e. Jah is strong; wherefore , sleep thou; changed; my year; second; liberal gift of the Lord , [Strong's H2059]. It appears that the Joel is here lost out of the text; and that washni , which signifies "and the second ," and which refers to Abiah , is made into a proper name. The Syriac and Arabic read as in Samuel. The marginal references contain the variation in the names given to the same persons , in different parts of sacred history , as far as it can be ascertained; and nearly the whole , that is at present known concerning them , may be learned by carefully consulting them
