John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

And the sons of his wife Hodiah,.... Another wife of Mered. Hillerus takes her to be the same with Jehudijah, 1Ch 4:18, though some take Hodiah to be the name of a man, and read the words, "and the sons of the wife of Hodiah"; which wife of Hodiah wasthe sister of Naham; or rather Achotnaham, we render the sister of Naham, is the name of the first son of Hodiah, as some think :the father of Keilah the Garmite; prince of the city of Keilah, in the tribe of Judah, Jos 15:44 who sprung from the family of Garmi:and Eshtemoa the Maachathite; the father or prince of the inhabitants of Eshtemoa, another city in the same tribe, see 1Ch 4:17 who sprung from Maachah, see 1Ch 2:48.
