1 Chronicles 2:15
13 Jesse was the father of Eliab his firstborn; Abinadab was born second, Shimea third,
14 Nethanel fourth, Raddai fifth,
Ozem sixth, and David seventh.
16 Their sisters were Zeruiah and Abigail. And the three sons of Zeruiah were Abishai, Joab, and Asahel.
17 Abigail was the mother of Amasa, whose father was Jether the Ishmaelite.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
