International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

jer´i - moth (see JEREMOTH , (c)):

(1) A B enjamite (1 Chronicles 7:7 ).

(2) A B enjamite who joined David at Ziklag, or perhaps a Judean (1 Chronicles 12:5 (Hebrew 6)).

(3) In 1 Chronicles 24:30 = JEREMOTH , (4) (which see).

(4) A L evite musician in David's time (1 Chronicles 25:4 ).

(5) Son of David and father of Mahalath, Rehoboam's wife (2 Chronicles 11:18 ). He is not mentioned (2 Samuel 3:2-5; 2 Samuel 5:14-16; 1 Chronicles 3:1-9; 1 Chronicles 14:4-7 ) among the sons of David's wives, so Curtis (Ch , 369) thinks that he was either the son of a concubine, or possibly the name is a corruption of "Ithream" (יתרעם , yithre‛ām , 1 Chronicles 3:3 ).

(6) A L evite overseer in Hezekiah's time (2 Chronicles 31:13 ).
