1 Chronicles 6:28
26 Elkanah his son, Zophai his son, Nahath his son,
27 Eliab his son, Jeroham his son, and Elkanah his son.
The sons of Samuel: Joel his firstborn and Abijah his second son.
29 The descendants of Merari: Mahli, Libni his son, Shimei his son, Uzzah his son,
30 Shimea his son, Haggiah his son, and Asaiah his son.
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.
