Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Huram his father - Or, “Huram his master-workman” (2 Chronicles 2:13 note).

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 2 Chronicles 4:16. Huram his father — אב ab, father, is often used in Hebrew to signify a master, inventor, chief operator, and is very probably used here in the former sense by the Chaldee: All these Chiram his master made for King Solomon; or Chiram Abi, or rather Hiram, made for the king.
