Contextual Overview
18 Caleb son of Hezron had children by his wife Azubah and by Jerioth. Caleb and Azubah's sons were Jesher, Shobab, and Ardon. 19 When Azubah died, Caleb married Ephrath. They had a son named Hur, 20 who was the father of Uri, who was the father of Bezalel. 21 Later, when Hezron was sixty years old, he married the daughter of Makir, Gilead's father. Hezron had sexual relations with Makir's daughter, and she had a son named Segub. 22 Segub was the father of Jair. Jair controlled twenty-three cities in the country of Gilead. 23 (But Geshur and Aram captured the Towns of Jair, as well as Kenath and the small towns around it—sixty towns in all.) All these were descendants of Makir, the father of Gilead. 24 After Hezron died in Caleb Ephrathah, his wife Abijah had his son, named Ashhur. Ashhur became the father of Tekoa. 25 Hezron's first son was Jerahmeel. Jerahmeel's sons were Ram, Bunah, Oren, Ozem, and Ahijah. Ram was Jerahmeel's first son. 26 Jerahmeel had another wife, named Atarah. She was the mother of Onam. 27 Jerahmeel's first son, Ram, had sons. They were Maaz, Jamin, and Eker.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the sons of Jerahmeel, the firstborn of Hezron, were Ram the firstborn,.... So called by his father after the name of his brother, see 1 Chronicles 2:9
and Bunah, and Oren, and Ozem, and Ahijah; or "of Ahijah", as some r render it, this being the name of his wife, who bare him the sons before named, since mention is made of another wife in the next verse.
r Junius, Tremellius, Piscator, Michaelis.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And Ahijah - There is no “and” in the original. Hence, some would read: “the sons” were born “of” or “from Ahijah,” the first wife of Jerahmeel (see the next verse).
