1 Chronicles 2:38

36 Attai was the father of Nathan, Nathan was the father of Zabad,

37 Zabad was the father of Ephlal, Ephlal was the father of Obed,

Obed was the father of Jehu, Jehu was the father of Azariah,

39 Azariah was the father of Helez, Helez was the father of Elasah,

40 Elasah was the father of Sismai, Sismai was the father of Shallum,

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.
