Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Ibhar.--"He" (i.e., God) "chooseth."Elishama.--Spelt Elishua in both of the parallel passsages. (See Note on 1Chronicles 3:5.) The recurrence of Elishama ("God heareth") in 1Chronicles 3:8 is no argument against the name here.Eliphelet ("God is deliverance") also occurs twice, and David may have chosen to give names so expressive of his own peculiar faith and trust to the sons of different wives. (See Psalm 18:2; Psalm 18:6.) This Eliphelet (called Elphalet--Heb., Elpelet, 1Chronicles 14:5; a by-form, as Abram is of Abiram, or Absalom of Abishalom, or Abshai of Abishai) is omitted in Samuel. So also is Nogah (brightness, i.e., of the Divine Presence, Psalm 18:13--a hymn which is certainly David's). (Comp. Japhia, "the Shining One.") Nepheg means "shoot, scion." . . .
